Billionaires today:
A boring distopia is already even a single person having more than a single billion.
Yup, there was that post a while back, like you reach a billion, you get a plaque that says “congrats you won capitalism” and then they start at 0 again
I think we need to return to some of the old Pagan practices, like if you became King, you were sacrificed to the gods exactly 1 year later, and a new King took power. I propose that once you hit 1 billion, you are sacrificed to Mammon, to go live with him in the Great Bank In The Sky.
Not even a billion, as soon as you’re in 8 figures you have more than a reasonable person can spend in a lifetime. Cap it at 50 million, every cent more goes towards public infrastructure and welfare
Or we could do away with capitalism entirely. Just saying
Capitalism does have some uses, like which TV you want to buy, but it needs to be heavily regulated.
