On Tuesday Nate Bear posted this on Twitter:

“The quicker we forget the pandemic the quicker we forget how easy it was for governments to ban evictions, forbid creditors from chasing debtors, find the homeless homes, provide a universal basic income and more. All the things we are told are impossible”

Let’s not forget!

Questions I think more people should be asking... Especially #PolicyMakers:

What is the effect of #inflation on #WealthInequality?

What is the effect of increasing #InterestRates on #WealthInequality?

Are there other methods to address inflation that don't impact people living below the #poverty line so much?

Is this a form of #WealthRedistribution? If so, are we playing the role of Robinhood, or the Sherriff of Nottingham?

A common knee-jerk reaction to the idea of a #UBI is the misconception that it is somehow "stealing" money from wealthy investors and giving it back to the people. But stop and think for a minute. Why is that money going to oligarchs in the first place? Because they invested money? In what, exactly? A corporate machine designed specifically to capture wealth from the general population and place it into their own possession. A corporation is literally a #WealthRedistribution mechanism, but one designed to increase #inequality instead of reducing it. Was Robinhood evil for stealing money from aristocrats and giving it back to the people? No, because he was stealing it from people who acquired it unjustly giving it *back*, not just taking it from someone who had rightfully earned it. Are corporations *rightfully* taking earned money when they extort you with marked up prices and then underpay you for your work? I think not.

@atomic @hellomiakoda I don't have these magical capabilities so I feel it's just social justice to rely on aid of people who got them 😂😂😂😂 #wealthredistribution

I just thought why I don't try restarting things myself. Well, it would be much less fun would it because then I couldn't call you IT wizards in anymore or? If you had a policy of coming in and distributing candy to all the kids who successfuly did the have-you-tried-to-restart-it self-solve routine then I'd be much more motivated 😜😁😁😂

Imagine being this egocentric... There should be no billionaires, wealth redistribution is a good thing #wealth #wealthinequality #wealthredistribution #billionaires #SocialPolicy #homelessness #finland

Americans get really offended by the notion of #wealthredistribution from the top down. They need to get offended by the reality of redistribution of wealth from the bottom up.

We need to keep reminding people that money is not finite. We can afford to feed, clothe, house and keep people warm. It's all about redistribution. The rich are the problem.

And then here is me looking ahead at what I'll be doing in 2023 and the practices involved. It's all about transitions.

Composting work.
Moving resources.
Staying with the trouble.
Tending to new soil.

What I mean by those things and who I'm doing them with, is here > https://cassierobinson.medium.com/becoming-2023-some-of-the-things-ill-be-doing-this-year-940ce5bf72be

I feel like I should do a hashtag post of my interests, altho I don't know if I'll toot about them: #Organizing #Abolition #CommunityDevelopment #SolidarityEconomy #ClimateJustice #EnvironmentalJustice #RegenerativeAgriculture #Composting #SoilScience #WealthRedistribution so-called #TransformativePhilanthropy #TransformativeJustice #Copyediting (my previous career) #Philippines ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ooof. This is like filling out a page in an FB, for those who know pen pal culture.

@trcfwtt it's funny that #Twitter was doing fine and sold for $44 billion. Now a billionaire comes along and is asking for money. They don't call them billionaires for no reason. Find something that's free, like water, and then charge for it. #Twitter #Billionaire #wealthredistribution #ElonMusk

@DeathBecumsMe thank you for saying this out loud. Each time I hear another story blame #inflation on the workers who want to make a basic #LivingWage, the words that flash in my mind are #wealthredistribution

12 more days to apply for one of these roles working in a small team on transformative wealth redistribution.

These are flexible roles, worth 30-34,000 Euros over 12 months, part-time (roughly 10-12 days per month but we'd prefer to work with people based on deliverables rather than 'days.'

We need a Learning Lead - https://lnkd.in/e-ACC_Ke

And a Documenter - https://lnkd.in/e4PvRwkW

Of course Rory the Tory Stewart supports #AirBnB. Because of course he does. Affordable local homes for local people?

P'shaw. The peasants don't need homes. They can sleep in ditches.

If I'm giving this a go, then I'd love to connect with new people (as well as keep in touch with old!).

Wondering how I might find others who are working in or care about -

Do governments not know how to count or are they putting the interests of a few ahead of those of the planet and the population? #ThomasPiketty #wealthredistribution #taxreform #france
