Dissident Politics: capitalism gone awry

Etiquette

DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

Capitalism Gone Awry??

My short, albeit “biased” question:

What kind of greedy bastard (or bitch… I’m an Equal Opportunity Employer ;) has a problem with Elizabeth Warren’s “wealth tax” of 2-cents on the dollar for earnings starting over the $50,000,000 mark, per year? (That’s millions, in case you got lost in the zeros.)

Seriously, explain that kind of greed to my curious mind. Thank you.
