"Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make"
Why do we only seem to get the bad outlandish things from books and movies? :/

Wait till he hears how necessary it is for life to get harder for billionaires.
That's why they're trying to take power. Billionaires would rather destroy the world and drive all life to extinction than to give up their private jets and yachts.
just wait till they outlaw protests and impose curfews
That's so 2020. Oh, that was under trump rule. Just a small sample of what's to come if he gets into office again.

The French found a solution some time ago, maybe history really repeats.

Wouldn't be the first civilization that disappeared because the elite doesn't want to compromise and give up status. It's a constant in history.
The worst part is--it's really not. These guys could all stay millionaires and we could still solve our system's worst distribution issues. Their biggest hardship could be dealing with not being The Guy With The Biggest Number when they go to their rich guy parties.
Personally I'm in favor of making them destitute and/or imprisoning them, but going that far really isn't strictly necessary.

Harder - lol. He'll have to settle for two 180 foot yachts instead of three.
necessary for what?
necessary for what, motherfucker?
Your comment has the same energy as "states' rights to do what?", and I'm here for it.
If I wasn't at work I'd edit the goose meme to match.
For a complete fascist takeover.

The fucking gall this billionaire POS has to utter the phrase "live within our means."
Necessary for Elon and trump to evade prison sentences.
These shitbags are trading the health of the majority to evade repercussions for their crimes (of which there are many).
Drone strike please.
Shut up, shut up, shut up please just shtfu already elon. How are people like him and bezos controlling the world? I swear we celebrate and praise mediocre morons in the US.
As a nation we have lost 30 years of progress because we give the loudest most idiotic people to ever live a platform to spew their collective nonsense. Take me back to 2010 where the internet was still fun and not just some massive propaganda machine for the uber wealthy and political nut jobs
How are people like him and bezos controlling the world?
Capitalism
But without capitalism we wouldn't have (insert something that has nothing to do with capitalism but that I completely attribute to it). And that would mean no trade.

There is no middle class. There are workers and owners. If you own real estate and stonks you are still a worker unless you can live off of just investments. This is designed to corrupt and neuter you. You have enough skin in the game of the owners to not want to oppose them, but not enough to actually be them. Unless you hope to retire, at which point you make the transition from working class to owning class, but only at the end of your life, if you even make it that far, and often owning very little.
This is why Worker and Consumer Cooperatives are so vital.

Add this to the news that Mike Johnson said they will end Obamacare and I can't believe anyone would vote for Trump. He's going to raise your costs, reduce government services, kill healthcare as we know it, the list goes on and on.
They literally want to end government. Aka, services for anyone who isn't wealthy.
The only government service they want is the police, and it to be funded by civil forfeiture.

So where are the "Republicans are good for the economy" voters now?
Anyone that actually cares about the economy would see that every time the republicans get in they fuck it, and every time the democrats get in they fix it.
But they don't care about reality, only their feelings
Fascist cunt
Electively suffering hardship? Billionaires first, set a good example for the rest of us, and the hardship can trickle down.

I wonder if when he says "necessary" he's referring to some longtermism weird BS.
I mean, he's definitely referring to some weird BS. But I wonder whether specifically it's longtermism BS.
I read recently "On Freedom" by Timothy Snyder and he mentions that. Billionaires are sucking or wealth and when we suffer, we are told that this is temporary and toward a greater good (which never comes).
Sadly it is successful and a lot of Americans believe that.
It opened my eyes seeing how we are set up to fight each other (blaming minorities) while oligarchs are making our lives more miserable by hoarding country's wealth.
He is, though he's wrong about Trump's plans being anything beneficial in the long term. But even what he's saying about any part of it being harmful is a contradiction of Trump's claims about the economy

Trump is better at this than Musk...
It will be a beautiful necessary. Everyone will love the carnage. We will destroy America bigly. Like never before. The radical left democrats will hate it, but it will be glorious. Trust me.
Bitch, we're already going through hardship. How much more hardship do we need to go through just so you can keep your power trip going?

Bro we couldn't even get people to wear masks and get free tests and vaccines without triggering white outrage, how you think actual financial hardship is going to go over with these people?
He'll immediately blame Biden for all the suffering he causes.

What's up with upper class trying to destroy middle class all the time? Are middle class a threat to them? Has to be, otherwise this wouldn't matter.
Make things hard for billionaires and spread their wealth amongst the lower class to start evening shit out. Who tf needs almost a trillion unspendable dollars?
There's no such thing as the middle class. You either own means of production, you sell your labour to those who do, or you belong to the criminal class that doesn't contribute to the growth of capital. The middle class is a fairy tale capitalists tell us to keep us in the labour class instead of the far more sensible criminal class.

its only "necessary" so him and his ilk can continue to bleed the nation dry
It's necessary for me not to have TSLAs price tank and the Saudis take recover loss out of me, pound-of-flesh style.
Or, probably how he's guilty of a ton of ITAR violations related to Saudis, SpaceX rockets, plus Russia and Starlink
