Germany's Left Party wants to halve billionaires' wealth
The Left Party says "there shouldn't be any billionaires." With Germany gearing up for an election, the far-left force has launched a new tax plan — though it will most likely never get a chance to implement it.

How about we halve the billionaires while we are at it?
Or just seize anything above a billion, the number of billionaires are now zero.
Redistribute seized assets and poverty is eliminated.
Stop, you’re being too sensible.
The French have invented a marvelous tool for that. It leaves the wealthy a bit lightheaded.
Depends... Do the two halves grow back into two billionaires. Is that how they multiply?

I don't know what you said, but I'm pretty sure I was going to make the same joke.
That's fine by me. Just leave me a piece 👍 preferably the bit that contains all the hard work they did to become a billionaire.
If they halve the billionaires wealth then there will be zero billionaires
Actshually... we call them billionaires after their first billion, but many have more than just 1 billion. Btw, until recently I didn't really knew how different is a billion from a million... For the record, 1M seconds is about 11 days. Meanwhile, 1B seconds is about 31 years. I think this helps to get a sense of the scale.
The difference between a million dollars and a billion dollars is about a billion dollars
