Tax The Rich
European Citizens’ Initiative We want a European wealth tax to finance the social and climate transition and help countries hit by climate change.
Signed it. Tax the fucking rich already.
Thanks! I ran into it through Lemmy and truly hope it is gonna make the numbers needed!
Signing process was really easy as well!
For US citizens there is another petition which you can sign : https://www.oxfamamerica.org/take-action/action-alert-tax-the-rich/
American billionaires are 33% richer than they were at the start of the pandemic, all while inequality has worsened and inflation has soared. Billionaires like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos pay a “true tax rate" of just 3% or less while working people around the globe pay far more.
Enough is enough. It’s time for the ultra-rich to pay their fair share of taxes.
Just a modest tax of up to 5 percent on the world’s richest individuals could bring in $1.7 trillion in a year, enough to lift 2 billion people out of poverty.
Sign your name and demand that President Biden, Congress, and world leaders address the inequality crisis globally and here at home by making multi-millionaires and billionaires pay their fair share of taxes.
I don’t know if I have signed already in the past. Does anyone know how can check? I couldn’t find anything in my emails, but I don’t trust the search function in my email app 100%
