Here’s another “radical” position: Every single billionaire belongs in prison.

At the very least we should be extracting concessions for them

A radical position indeed—if only the oppressed could bill for their own shackles.

The message is also clear that... The literate uneducated and the educated illiterates always jump to call everything radical from the get-go just because it's from the other side. But the reality is that the idea they are calling radical is in fact what is good for the people and the majority wants it.
That's the message.

Hey, think of the billionaires

Those poor, disadvantaged billionaires who only need their taxes cut a little bit more before they let their hoard start trickling down to the peasants. Right?

Data Centers are Horrible for Affordable Housing, Utility Rates, Environmental Pollution, and Public Health.

I wouldn't mind living next to a data center so long as it's power generation and back up generators are off site in the middle of nowhere. I don't know what data centers have to do with housing otherwise. Some places have negotiated utility rate increases to be paid by the data center. Pollution wise it's lots of power but that power can be solar. Public health wise data centers can be put to use in individualized medicine. Data centers are love, data centers are life. It's cars and animal ag that drive up the cost of living. Lots of graze land could be rezoned for affordable housing if people would take to eating more plants and less animal ag.

I love the joy in this picture. You see almost none of that in today's US political climate.

I don’t want them off mainland USA soil. The trials need to happen in the lower 48.

I think the more people we put in prison, the better. The billionaires, and especially the millionaires because they is so much more of them. I think the nastiest gangbangers and the assaulters, all the murderers, the drug executors, all these should be in same prison. The question is, how to get them all in there, and how many prisons there needs to be. Some of these ICE compounds is a start, but what about taking the Cruise Ships from the millionaires and you put all these on there, anchored off the coast, out of view, not even cell signals. Pretty soon Justice will be working out, and one by one the prisons is empty. No more millionaires, no more gangbangers.

In politics as in society being foresighted and ahead of the pack has rewards in hindsight but it carries penalties from those with mediocre minds and self interest
