down to the average level of wealth in Britain. No apologies. On the absolute contrary: a basic principle, right there in the preamble of any written constitution that Britain might eventually get - hah! Just the basic idea that no-one at all, ever, is allowed to be more than - oh I don't know say about 10% above the national average - before 100% expropriation starts: Cutting away, unapologetically, on basic principle, into the public purse, of all forms of excess wealth that the accused possesses. And with possible further penalties if it appears that the person/family/group/outfit/whatever has climbed above the cut-off limit wilfully, in deliberate defiance of basic constitutional law. And - rather than them volunteering for exile, as they keep threatening - after they'd done their community service sentences for wilful defiance of the constitution, they should be considered for involuntary deportation - to some neolibcon paradise of their preference. If anyone would take such scum. Or they could remain, but under regular annual - and draconian - inspection of literally all of their assets, for further due process of law, if they're still incorrigibly at the business of excessive money-grubbing. We don't need the over-rich! The whole world would benefit from their complete extinction, everywhere. In a nutshell, make excess wealth a basic crime against all, to be treated as a serious offence and handled accordingly. |
