Fun Fact, Luigi killed zero billionaires.
So… we need Super Luigi?
Even if you hypothetically kill a Billionaire, the number of Billionaires doesn’t go down at all. You’d have 1,000,000x the effectiveness if you hypothetically killed somebody who passes tax cut laws.
Well if you stop after the first one yeah
This above list shows 1 Billionaire per Country. There are roughly 3,028 total. And since wealth is transient, passing from one generation to the next, you would have to kill off entire families including some innocents. The math just doesn’t work out unless you and your allies are a 7/10ths majority because you’re going to face fierce resistance, and you will never get that much support.
And it wouldn’t last. A few years down the line it would simply reassemble, because no real changes have been made.
I love how you think a killing spree that eliminated all the richest people in the world and their families wouldn’t cause anything to change at all.
News flash, literal tons of people get killed off systematically every day, and entire families disappear. What would change is who is getting rich off of it, that’s all. We NEED to tax rich people out of existence, that’s the only way.
This depends on how that wealth is transferred, how its distribution is selected by people’s legal documents such as wills, how legal challenges play out, and whether they are successful in evading taxes.
Obviously a possibly ideal option is just 100% tax over some limit, for example $1B net wealth without regard for liabilities.
I’d happily accept any stifling of innovation that causes.
Yes, I’m very pro-tax, which is why I’m always arguing with the “kill every rich person” crowd because very few of them seem to agree.

You’ve already sold me you don’t have to keep selling
In all seriousness, you think the people saying that we should kill billionaires don’t think there should also be other changes as well? You think they aren’t actively trying to push that reform? You’re just assuming people are violent and not trying to fix it, which is kinda judgemental on your part. Just because you want tax reform doesn’t mean other people haven’t figured that out as well.
What I’m saying is, we can do both.
Thanks for supporting my point that only bloodthirsty idiots want that.
So more billionaires to kill, cool
Why is Putin missing from this list? Vlad has about $200Bn in assets.
Xi Jinping I can understand, because he only has 1.7 Bn in family assets unless you consider he has full control over all of China’s assets, but there is no excuse for excluding Putin.
Because it’s all speculation. Putin’s wealth isn’t public.
I suspect this applies to a several other private business leaders or “murky” politicians, especially if wealth is technically spread out over a family.
Line em Up
All the money in the world couldn’t fix that…
i didn’t expect to see Rihanna.
Guess i always assumed she was American
Russia is wrong. Putin is the richest Russian. By far. Some people argue he might be the richest person on earth.
This would look so cool as a deck of playing cards, amirite?
A tiny compnay called ComradeWorkwear tried to do this last year with their “Most Wanted CEO” playing cards.
In less than a week, their social media accounts were shut down, they were debanked, and they were visited by the police multiple times.
And perhaps worst of all, the playing cards were never released.
Now it appears most of the news stories about this incident have been scrubbed from the Internet.

Putin should be on the list and pretty high up. He owns Russia to an extent.
That is a beautifully formatted hit list.
No Slovenia 🎉🎉🎉🎉🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮
Changpeng Zhao has an interesting history
Ugh, indeed
Hit list?
