Going through some old #photography . Back in 2012 I thought it might be interesting to take a picture of this stalled luxury hotel development in #cville and compare it to when it was finally built. It still looks a lot like this today in 2023. #landtaxes #wealthtaxes #placemaking #luxury

The UK billionaire boom, since 1990. They had a good pandemic too. How much more obvious can it possibly get that we need #WealthTaxes, and that not having them is causing great, completely unnecessary suffering? https://equalitytrust.org.uk/news/equality-trust-finds-1000-increase-billionaire-wealth from @equalitytrust@twitter.com

This Conservative govt is fine with making people who do the most socially valuable work poorer, going to food banks in the name of keeping inflation down, but they'll never, ever CONSIDER making the wealthiest 'poorer,' not even the smallest wealth transfer through #WealthTaxes

#RitadelaFeria beginning the panel discussions at #taxmix2050
How do we balance the tension in #taxpolicy where #greentaxes may fall more heavily on those less able to pay, and not targeting the #wealthtaxes that we need to develop further

If tax cuts give you $100 back in your wallet yet it gives the rich, $10,000 back in theirs, you are not $100 richer. Money is relative to wealth. When we give handouts or tax breaks and most of it goes to the rich
YOU. GET. POORER.
Tax the rich, don't just cut carbon taxes.

As #COP27 rumbles on, I read @OliverBullough@twitter.com's weekly email where he tells me about 170km futuristic megacity #NEOM & plans for "hot air balloons housing 5 star hotel rooms" - up to $7,900 a night. #WealthTaxes, please! Time to close my laptop for the day. https://www.codastory.com/newsletters/neom-saudi-arabia-democracy-uk/
