We frequently see Leftists (like @ZackPolanski or @BernieSanders ) whining about wealth distribution but as anybody who has started a business knows, the important thing is growing the size of the pie, not what your proportion is.
Would you rather own 50% of a £1 million company or 1% of a £1 billion company? Try and equalise wealth distribution and all that happens is the pie doesn’t grow.
Nobody is struggling because someone else is a billionaire. You are struggling because endless government intervention (and the corrupt cronyism it breeds) is a massive drag on growing the size of the pie.

Dear Makerfield
He lied to you about reversing #Brexit.
You know what to do at the next general election.
Send him packing.
17.4m fellow Brexiteers are expecting it.

Noah, I studied Marx earning an economics M.A. at the New School in NYC--& I found Marx unconvincing. But that was about 55 years ago, a few years before I went libertarian. So I guess that time-gap disqualifies me as a "libertarian with the balls to actually study Marx"?!

Says that project fear predictions not coming true "needs evidence" when it is everywhere.
Also says that cost of Brexit doesn't need evidence, and is true irrespective of the facts and data.
Be better than loopy Liz.

Rotem Gafinovitz reveals in a new interview that her British cycling team kicked her out due to her being Israeli.
Gafinovitz made headlines on October 14th, 2023, as she raced with tears running down her cheeks and her Star of David proudly displayed. She had wanted to skip the race and return to Israel, but was convinced to stay and cycle for all those who died on October 7th. It is also the race that helped qualify her for the Paris Olympics.
Despite being an Olympian-level cyclist, her British team didn't want her anymore, specifically because she has an Israeli passport.
I'm sure Free Palestine supporters will read this post and pat themselves on the back like they did anything. But all they are doing is harassing a woman who has done more for Palestinians than they ever have. Gafinovitz returned to Israel recently to vote, and she also participated in a charity cycling event for a hospital that regularly admits Palestinian children from Gaza and the West Bank.
That is support. Trying to ruin someone's life because of where they were born isn't.

This clip has been viral for three days straight.
Not one legacy media outlet currently heralding the return of "decency" and "love" and "muh norms" has said a word.
Why? Because the rhetoric is directed at their new Public Enemy Number One.
Because they approve.
Scott Galloway calls Elon Musk a "traitor to the West" and invokes the executions of the Rosenbergs after WW2.
"We lined up the Rosenbergs against a wall. This is a traitor to the West, and he should be held to the same standards as every other traitor in the West."
*Applause*
These people are absolutely unhinged.

Tu t'appelles Charlotte. 23 ans. Tu étudies à Sciences Po Paris. Tu milites à La France insoumise et tu vas à la techno-parade contre la vie chère ce weekend.
Ton père, Philippe, est ingénieur chez Total, à côté de Bizanos.
Il travaille depuis 36 ans dans l'énergie, a commencé foreur et dirige maintenant le projet "Exploration puits 2035" avant de partir à la retraite.
Philippe te fait un virement tous les mois pour financer ton 2 pièces à 1350€ dans le quartier latin et tes cours de pilates reformer.
Tu as un tote bag « taxez les riches », un iPhone 17 Pro et un abonnement à Mediapart.
Tu considères que les grandes entreprises sont "une catastrophe sociale et écologique". Tu as d'ailleurs écrit un mémoire de 42 pages sur les violences symboliques du capitalisme.
Philippe qui se lève à 6h depuis 1987, te paye tes études grâce ses à anciennes stocks-options chez Shell.
À Sciences Po, tu as enfin rencontré des jeunes qui partagent tes convictions. Leurs parents sont avocats, médecins, hauts fonctionnaires ou dirigeants.
Vous avez fondé un collectif de "house music" en résistance au néolibéralisme.
Vous vous réunissez chaque jeudi dans un café du 11e pour discuter de la lutte des classes autour d'une bouteille de vin naturel orange à 38€.
Tu n'as jamais travaillé dans une usine, mais tu connais parfaitement les conditions de vie du prolétariat grâce à tes stages à l'ONU et au PNUD trouvés par les contacts de ta mère Christine à L'Oréal.
Tu expliques à ton père que les grandes entreprises exploitent les travailleurs.
Il te propose de venir rencontrer les techniciens de son usine pendant les vacances. Tu peux pas car t'as anniversaire de Julie à Santorin.
À Noël, tu rentres au "pays".
Ton père vient te chercher à la gare de Dax avec sa nouvelle Tesla.
Pendant le trajet, tu lui expliques que les cadres supérieurs sont complètement déconnectés des réalités populaires et que Elon Musk est la lie de l'humanité.
Philippe sourit nerveusement.
De retour dans ta maisonnée de famille, Philippe demande si ta recherche de stage en cinéma militant avance en te proposant du foie gras et du serrano-manchego.
Tu lui dis que tu es vegan depuis cette année et qu'il est insensible à la cruauté animale.
Philippe se sert un verre de Jurançon, s'asseoit sur son fauteuil Roche Bobois et te demande si tu es pour la taxation de l'héritage à 100%.

Berlin. Es werden Juden aus Universitäten gedrängt. Es wird zum Boykott jüdischer Geschäfte, Künstler, Symbole und Wissenschaftler aufgerufen. Juden werden auf offener Straße angegriffen, bespuckt und zusammengeschlagen.
Was meinen Sie? Was kommt jetzt?
(Hilfestellung: Vor dem Holocaust lebten allein in Berlin in etwa so viele Juden, wie heute nur noch in ganz Deutschland.)

What. An. Abusive. Moron.
Maybe you’re not playing Madison Square Garden because you had one song over a decade ago, prick.
Macklemore has accused nine major U.S. music venues of refusing to host his “Free Palestine” charity tour, including Madison Square Garden and the Kia Forum.
“After weeks of reaching out, nine major American arenas have turned us down,” Macklemore wrote on Instagram. “By mid-September, we received available dates at these arenas through the end of the year. But once they found out these were my benefit shows for Palestine, those dates were suddenly off the table. The doors were closed. The conversations were all different, but the result was the same. The shows were not going to be allowed to happen in these venues.”
“In over 20 years of touring, I’ve never experienced anything like this,” he wrote. “I’d rather lose every opportunity in this industry than spend another day protecting people who value their business relationships with Israel more than they value Palestinian human life.”
“We live in a country that prides itself on freedom of speech. Yet we’ve reached a point where a handful of billionaires can decide which causes are acceptable, which voices are welcome and which human lives are worth defending,” he later wrote. “Today it’s Palestine. What will it be tomorrow?”

A neo-Keynesian could get trapped in an elevator in a gov't-owned building & still spend his last breath offering to pay a-bit-more-in-taxes for greater gov't regulation requiring capitalist firms to make elevators safer.

How depressing that it’s impossible to have anything nice anymore. Canaletto’s painting this morning by the canal in London, covered in red spray paint applied by someone devoid of talent, brains and culture.
