The diagram is missing “Tax evasion”.
Or is it part of the “How the rich stay rich” diagram?
Taxes exist for public benefit, so tax evasion easily fits in the “merciless exploitation of the working class” category.
Not to nitpick, but tax evasion hurts everybody, not just the working class.
?
State pension plans, disability benefits, education… Those are things that concern people who aren’t working class, that the state can provide less of, and that working people have to contribute more heavily to, because the rich don’t.
Ergo, everybody is impacted when the rich don’t contribute to the society they are part of.
All those services are what Mr Money Bags wants privatized so they can profit from providing those services. That’s why you hear this talk about social security - the incoming administration wants it privatized.
You’re thinking like a human, the rich are thinking like a class above the rest of the humans. Yes it’s dumb, but here we are cooking our planet at an ever increasing rate.
