The World's Billionaires Need To Keep President Biden In Check

[DanieRains]

So they can continue their pillaging of the planet, and not paying real taxes.

They need more billions, and Joe is getting in their way.

Russia's oligarchs aren't the only ones.

Addressing wealth disparity and climate change could cost them, and their media prostitutes push back daily against Joe and the Democrats.

Our press isn't free, it is bought and paid for.

Perspective.

1. That is correct. Look for Dems to get diminishing press coverage going forward /nt

2. TRUTH BOMB!

3. You have to remember who the medias biggest advertisers are.

They actually control the messages we hear. They are also the biggest Donors and control our politicians. We have a corporate shadow government. There is a reason no one from Wall Street went to jail for the 2008 bust and many other shenanigans they have committed.

4. +1

And keep the serfs arguing and hating one another to keep the focus off of the lords and ladies at the top.

5. Don't worry.

The GQP has their back, and Biden is not dictator. The Senate will do its job and stop those Levellers in the House.

6. To me we are seeing the fruition of Rollerball & Network

Today more than ever, i feel these 2 excellent films sum up where the World has gotten to today. Corporatocracies and oligarchs controlling everything especially our mass media networks. It is almost beyond repair at this point sad to say.

7. Real Democracy Is Their Enemy

The people might vote for them to pay to fix their messes.

8. "It is almost beyond repair at this point sad to say."

It sure feels that way. Corporations are people. Money is speech.

Publicly funded elections would go a long way to fixing our political representation, but the people who can change the system benefit from the current system.

11. Jensen's speech to Beale in the boardroom in Network

is one of those pinnacles of cinematic reality. Of course, certain elements
still push Beale's angry man spiel as the high point.

9. They're working on it. They have the worst national party and SCOTUS than $$$$ can buy.

10. Agreement

How different this planet would be if ALL billionaires paid their fair share in taxes instead of indulging themselves and using their money for humongous yachts, trips to outer space, etc. Just because they have had the breaks in life to give them that kind of wealth shouldn't mean it is all theirs!!! Of course, that doesn't mean they can fix all the world's problems but their wealth should be a benefit to society. One thing they could do is make the world a safer place to live for everyone!......The billionaires are going to die just like the rest of us!!!

19. the world would be better without capitalism

and without wealthy people.

[L. Coyote]

12. Not all billionaires are part of the global plutocrat mafia.

Also, not all media is controlled by billionaires. We have free press as well as right-wing press.

[Pepsidog]

13. If only they realized this fact.

[Duppers]

14. K & R

Thanks for mentioning climate change too. Too many want to ignore it, especially Reich wingers.

As my right wing relative used to say, "Well, how did we cause it?" Such ignorance!

[XanaDUer2]

15. I'm glad I've got about another 20 yrs

I wouldn't want to be a kid anymore. Climate change, corporations ruling us, the rise of fascism, environmental degradation, high expenses.

[pandr32]

16. I agree with this post

[hay rick]

17. No argument from me.

18. Biden has this little problem

He sometimes goes off script and speaks from his heart.

Like this time in 2012...

That one didn't cost the oligarchs anything though. But he's dangerous, and they know it.

20. Billionaires have suffered enough!

Hahahahahaha!!!




Poor souls!
