Record numbers becoming billionaires through inheritance, UBS report finds | The super-rich | The Guardian https://share.google/N8yUmt52cSrmu9o2W


There's a high need of an Inheritance tax over billionaire to make Equal grounds for Each Individual.The claim that most ultra-wealthy individuals are "self-made" ignores structural economic reality Unearned Capital( https://www.oxfamamerica.org/explore/stories/how-are-billionaire-and-corporate-power-intensifying-global-inequality/?hl=en-GB ) Data from Oxfam reveals that roughly 60% of global billionaire wealth is derived from inheritance, monopoly power, or crony connections rather than innovation.
"Every Billionaire is a result of Failed Policy and governance." Billionaires are serious threat to any Society who wants to provide an equal opportunity to everyone.They are already consuming the most amount of share from our assets by paying less taxes thanks to the Brain-dead capitalist's argument of meritocracy which thier masters even themselves don't believe in.They are already using resources coming from our tax money for thier factories, creating fortunes from it and giving it to thier successors.Inheritance is the least thing they can do.Targeting inherited fortunes through a robust inheritance tax breaks the cycle of unearned economic power. It ensures that capital serves society as a whole, rather than perpetuating wealth dynasties.

The course of development we are heading towards is not for the great good of civilization or the people, it's sole purpose is maximization of profit for those who live at the top for which they even destroy or acquire better alternatives available in the nature or the market which again creates a huge gap between Haves and Have Nots

There's a reason why capitalism celebrates science and engineering while degrading humanities. Engineers build weapons, roads, factories, systems of surveillance, increases production and strengthens army ( WW1&2 happened because of competition between capitalist economies, colonialism being driven by capitalism ).

These studies focus more on Instrumental rationality, which focuses strictly on the most efficient means to achieve a specific goal, without ever questioning the moral value or wisdom of the end goal itself. And that's what humanities never abandons. History questions myths, philosophy questions authority, sociology reveals how hierarchies are not natural but man made.

What capitalism needs is certainty. It needs pure heroes and absolute enemies. It requires obedience without question.

The reason why capitalism pushes science by degrading humanities is not because they find it useless, but because it stops you from being the zombie they want, it makes you think that are we heading in the right direction? And it's the people who come from backgrounds like humanities or someone interested in them, who question their progress, which of course is only for profit maximization for the selected few.

The enemy of this Fascist state is clearly the people who can think, people who have their own opinion, people who aren't lap dogs of a particular wing, ideology or a party anymore. The state can easily control labours be it premium or cheap but not the people who can think. Most fascist dictatorships start by banning books. Then it's always the playwright, the creative people and the artist.

Fascism works by painting terrifying visions of the future, like hindu khatre me hai, immigrants taking everything you have and stuffs which are not even true. After which they position themselves as the strong men who will protect you from this future.

And the people who aren't zombies anymore are going to question them at every moment and that's what they hate. Fascism works by painting the future as being bleak and horrible and dangerous, and that they'll protect you from it but can you recall any step taken by these govt to ensure that those threats don't exist anymore? The problem is that they themselves don't want the threat or the enemy to be gone. This is the point where one has to think that are we really under threat? Or who exactly is threatening us?

These are the questions which the fascist state would hate to hear and that's why it becomes important for them to suppress any intellectual wing who can come up and question their wrong doings.

And they can easily solve this by manipulating people by using some words which those intellectual people might like and those who follow the state could use them as slur to defend the wrong doings of their state in the name of "Nationalism". Providing another enemy to keep them engaged.

People name anyone having empathy towards the people or other living beings who suffer because of the government as the "enemy of development" or simply "enemy of the state" and now "dimagi Naxal". That's exactly how we are wired, that's what they intended to do by degrading subjects like humanities. This helps them to continue their "profit driven development" which are most of the time unnecessary in those lands.

The BJP’s new “Dimagi Naxal” campaign has drawn criticism for branding journalists, academics and public figures as “intellectual Naxals”.

Its AI-generated video features journalist Rajdeep Sardesai and professor Nandita Narain, among others, prompting the Editors’ Guild of India to call it a threat to media professionals.

Critics say the campaign risks labelling dissent and criticism as support for Naxalism without evidence.

While billionaires enjoy benefits of all sorts, normal people suffer in poverty and despair and are forced to do harsh labour even if they are not physically or mentally fit for that, only to bring enough money just to eat, drink and pay for other expenses which are imposed by these development, which became a necessity by the time because some companies decided to mass produce it, which makes further developments keeping consideration of the point that most of the people are going to have that item.

I get it that it will take a lot of explanation to make people understand how this development is working in our society but do you think it is fair to give all these benefits to the one who doesn't need it, who can buy even lives with the money they have. And make others suffer just for their survival by taking profits from things essential for human survival.
