    To save money, eat the rich.

    But seriously, why are we letting these dragons hoard wealth for no real reason other than bigger number makes them feel more important.

    Economies work best when money is moving fast between the lower and middle classes. Wealth tax the fuck out of the obscenely rich and give incentives to raise wages, suddenly people are able to spend more and whatdoyaknow the economy grows.

      But asylum seekers get three cents, a piece of toast and half a napkin every month for free! If we threw them out, all this could be ours!

    Sure, and while we’re at it, let’s just skip all meals to save money! These fucking people, man. Anything to shy away from the fact that we the people are getting fleeced.
