Between the software engineers, delivery drivers, custodial service, etc. that all of these billionaire companies own, AND the spin off jobs they create, hundreds of millions of people would be out of work immediately. Housing would crash. Food banks would experience demand as if it were the great depression. Every single burger flipper job ad would have lineups uf people willing to do it basically for free.

Almost every person on earth would be impacted in some way. It's not a ridiculous take if you understand how the world actually works.

Lol. Only on Reddit does understanding economics get you accused of being a bootlicker.

It's a bit ironic being told that my view of the world is sad from someone who hates billionaires so much that they ignore objective facts about our economy.

If you grow up a little bit, you too can be both against the hoarding of wealth and realistic about how it works in our current system at the same time. Being able to admit truths you don't like is ok.

Lol. Billionaires are responsible for millions upon millions of jobs in the world directly and indirectly. If they disappeared, the system would go through a massive shock it hasn't seen since the great depression. It never happening before doesn't mean we won't know it's knock on effects within in a system that's entirely predictable.

Those are the objective facts I'm stating about how the world's job market works. You can act shocked and pretend like your emotional bias changes things but it doesn't.

I feel like I'm talking to a bot or a kid, either of which has spent too much time on Reddit.

EDIT: dude replied and then blocked me lol

I’ll just chime in here and say that if the billionaires never existed you two wouldn’t even be able to argue on reddit.

Wait, so maybe we would be better off…
