Privatisation of the NHS, not even through the back door. Out in the open for everyone to see, multibillion £ private companies making even more money out of essential public services. #Labour, the party of the oligarchs. #wealthtax #votegreen

"The generational warfare promoted by #centrists and the Right, who have long been desperate to cut and privatize Social Security, is a fool’s solution to what ails the system. Taxing the rich is the answer."

They despise us because their wealth has detached them from humanity.
To stop the brainwashing, we must dismantle the hoard we allowed them to build. We end this by ending the era of the oligarch.
No more billionaires.
No more "gods". No more cattle.
It's about survival.

This makes no sense whatsoever, is unjust, cruel, & is purely political.
We could provide essential support to people with disabilities very easily by taxing the ultra rich!
But this Govt fears the rich & stamps on the weak.
Total lack of leadership.

He’s quite happy to take bribes from Private Health Care providers and those linked to them, from genocide committing Israel and to take a 5% pay rise himself. So he can take his sanctimonious, anti trans, bs hate an shove it where the sun don’t shine.

Really wish I had the health to be at the anti war, anti fascist, anti hate protests and rallies that we are seeing more of. #FuckLabourUK. #FuckReformLtd company of fascists. #FuckTory #FuckGOP and the #PaedoRegime. #FuckZionistIsrael. #FuckPutin and #FuckOligarchs. #wealthtax #votegreen
I really should get my PC to just autocorrect #PrivateEquity to #RichIndividuals just for clarity. #WealthTax #TaxTheRich
If you want misery, lies & austerity, then vote for #Labour or #Tories.
If you want the above, plus hatred, #racism, restricted human rights & expensive healthcare, then vote #Reform.
If you want progressive & inclusive politics, a #WealthTax & a functioning #NHS, then #VoteGreen.
Exactly THIS!!!!!!!! 👇
As the 6th richest country in the world, there is plenty of money to go round & to do the below things.
It's just that our billionaires have most of it & they want MORE. As little as possible for us 'plebs'. 🙄

A Millionaires Tax? Let's Try Shared Prosperity!
••• X
A new tax on fat paychecks like mine was just signed into law in my home state - and I like it.In 2029, Washington state will start collecting a 9.9% tax on income over $1 million. The 8,000,000
Washingtonians whose households make less than a million dollars a year will pay zero under this new tax and enjoy all the benefits of a better-funded state.
And for the wealthy (like me and an estimated 30,000 others), every million dollars in taxable income that our households earn after the first million will cost us about $100,000.
It takes a lot of money to run a state that's as livable as ours. Yet Washington is one of only nine states that don't currently levy a traditional income tax. Our state is still funded by consumption taxes, such as sales and excise taxes, giving us the second-most regressive tax code in the country. (Only Florida has us beat.) And it's time for Washington millionaires to pay our fair share.
Right about now, Republicans reading this are queuing up in the comments to holler their well-worn excuses: A state income tax will penalize, and therefore demoralize, Washington state's job creators! Letting the rich get richer results in more wealth trickling down! Wealthy people will flee your state for those with more regressive taxation! (Since California and Oregon already have a comparable tax, that would be distant lands like Texas, Tennessee, and Nevada.)
As a wealthy person myself, I see this tax as essentially free money for all Washingtonians.
Everybody in my state gains. And speaking from personal experience, I know that anyone who earns](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xxmnxaobuyj77i25cca3b6mh/bafkreihrl63dfpq6oxlgrffk2exhcncuwbxesusihmetm5b7lxvmeporp4)

2 As a wealthy person myself, I see this tax as essentially free money for all Washingtonians. Everybody in my state gains. And speaking from personal experience, I know that anyone who earns enough to be subject to this tax is beyond the point where consuming more adds to their security, their well-being, or even, arguably, their happiness - meaning there will be basically zero human cost. If you disagree, consider the minuscule impact this tax will have on my state's millionaires. Now, contrast that with the value of close to $4 billion a year in tax revenue once it's smartly invested in programs that will help the roughly one-third of Washington households living paycheck to paycheck. For those who still aren't convinced, here's a lesson I've learned in my travels: Even if you're motivated only by greed, if you know what's good for you, you don't want to be filthy rich in a society with a huge gap between rich and poor. It's just not a nice place to raise your kids. And remember: Shrouds have no pockets...especially if you're a multimillionaire with no heart for your neighbors. Plus, helping build a better community for you and your neighbors just...feels good. I learned this firsthand back in 2011, when -after years of receiving a Bush-era tax break for the wealthy that I didn't need - I noticed that to pay for that tax cut, public funding for community programs and institutions was being decimated. Recognizing the practical value of investing my tax savings in my community, I've donated $100,000 a year to our local arts center and symphony ever since, covering concert hall rental costs for our volunteer orchestra and much more. Paying a "self-imposed wealth tax" and knowing I'm helping my entire community has brought me great joy for 15 years and counting. It's far from heroic...but it is a little lonely.

The "millionaires tax" that Governor Bob Ferguson signed into law today will make our state better than ever - not just for the working class and poor, but for everyone who values a healthy and sustainable future. And for us millionaires who are enlightened enough to realize that we've reached a point where consuming more won't make us genuinely happier, it just feels right to pay a little extra. For me, it's biblical ("To whom much is given, much will be required")...
It's European (after all, societies that are equitably funded are much more "content" than ours)... And - for those of us with a heart for the public good - it's simply common sense.

They could have hit the road running and done so much good. But Labour let Starmer be their leader and set up a right wing Zionist front bench paid for by Israel and oligarchs. #votegreen #wealthtax
