Dani Dowling @ddowling.bsky.social · 22/10/2025100% agree. America created a middle class off 90% wealth tax and we thrived. Gutting it and allowing money into politics has been a cancer and there’s almost nothing left to squeeze. It’s dangerous to others at that level - meddling in governments, buying up swaths of industry and land etc 071
