That means by his own admission he’s an idiot
Here’s a guy to invite along? Invite this guy? How about this guy? Can we have this guy? Here’s a fellow? How about this fellow? Can we hear what this guy has to say? Call him now? He might be free to come by? Call him? Call him up? Give him a ring? Ring him up? Email him? Txt him? Send out a pigeon? Smoke up a signal? Drums of the jungles of the world? Drum them? Drop him a line? Send a letter? Woo him? Pay him? Beg him? Plead with him? Come along to the warped, fucked up, cracked-mirror disaster that this absurd budget will certainly be. Where the rich just get richer, or worse. They get to stay out of jail with our money while we suffer terribly at their feet.
If he came along? You do know what might happen don’t you?
All my accusations of systemic corruption spanning many decades might be revealed. My assertions that AO/NZ farmers have been manipulated, exploited and swindled might be proven correct.
We have, for years, been yapping up the wrong forest. We’ve been manipulated into believing a raft of logical fallacies espoused by those very few super rich here into thinking they deserve our wealth and because we can’t figure them out, hunt them down and drag them to courts then prison? It’s our fault. Serves us right. And when we try? They bully us, further manipulate us, question our minds thus our reasoning and if we get too close they then continue, unabated to exploit us within the tombs of acquiescence they keep us locked away within by using our own MSM and if we get too close? Thompson and Clark are let off their leash.
We had brilliant minds come here and speak to us re the TPPA. How about this guy now? Please, I’m begging you, quite literally, please ask this guy to swing by.
Gabriel Zucman: the Piketty-trained “wealth detective” who catalogued the secret fortunes of the super-rich and figured out how to tax them
Bloomberg’s Ben Steverman offers a long and exciting profile of Gabriel Zucman (previously), a protege of Thomas Piketty (Zucman was one of the researchers on Piketty’s blockbuster Capital in the 21st Century) who has gone on to a career at UC Berkeley, where he’s done incredibly innovative blockbuster work of his own, particularly on estimating the true scale of the wealth gap in the USA and worldwide.
