    Your grasp of how money works is surface level.

    Let’s start here: billionaires do not have billions of dollars like Scrooge McDucks swimming in gold. They hold securities for companies that are doing things on the idea that they can sell them and redeploy that capital later.

    In other words: the money means nothing. All that wealth means is they’re the ones who control resources.

    By similar reasoning, modern monetary theory is that government can print money and activate unused resources without driving inflation very much.

    So what you want is a planned economy. Soviet style. In fact the language you use makes it clear you’re fully bought into tankie propaganda.

    There are 3 ways to make people do things: money, love and power. So am I going to give you everything you need because of love? money is clearly not the means to ends in your system. That leaves the threat of unaliving.

    And so we’re back at gun control, the only way your kind is able to make such a system work: by killing everyone who disagrees.
