The gimmies that make up the Left’s voting base just can’t comprehend why all these billionaires can’t just be forced to take care of everyone.

So all that utopian free stuff has to come from somewhere.

The Chicago Teachers Union keeps posting about "holding billionaires responsible". I did the math. There are something like 15 billionaires within city limits, worth something like $50bn. The city of Chicago's budget annualy is $16bn. In other words, if you take everything those billionaires have, liquify it, and pay the entire budget, this lasts for maybe 3-4 years until those people are flat broke.

Of course one of those billionaires is a Walton heir, worth $20b, so he will probably scamper back to Arkansas leaving the total at $30b, and now there is two years of funding. Pretty soon many of them have left (Ken Griffin is long gone, as are quite a few others).

To show how silly this all is, a guy I know had a $2m condo downtown. The taxes were so egregious that he walked away from it for something like $700 just to get out. It was worth a $1.3m loss to get away from the tax structure there...

Leftists have a literal cartoon sense of wealth.


They legitimately think Jeff Bezos has infinite money.

I believe this is the Democrats socialist plan. Force the liquidation of private assets so they can redistribute through the socialist greasy palms.

Is this all you have to do right now?

I’m really curious about this.

Do you get paid to do this?

It’s refreshing to see a politician point to some actual numbers and explain what must be done.


It’s 2026, everything should work this way.

The reality is that the incoming mayor inherited a huge deficit. But the issue is, how does he deal with it…

Apparently he is going to make it worse while destroying what’s left of the productive base of the city. A lot of people could have told you that, but the young hip kids wanted to be young and hip and fight the man.
