I vote for harm reduction, because that's all that's available to me in any given election.

Does there exist a world where me not voting somehow magically puts a stop to billionaires having undo control and influence over the rest of society? I'd like to visit that world sometime.
The problem is that you want to remove billionares.

The solution should be to find ways to tax them appropriately, but then also use the tax revenue PROPERLY to fund social services. Not waste it like gluttonous morons, which is what we do.

But hey, go elect Carney. He's literally the person you so strongly hate. Elitist rich loser that will gut our country to enrich himself and his buddies even more. Brookfield has over $1 trillion in assets under management, and just spend another billion buying more single family homes. These are the companies that are the issue, who buy up assets like that to push the lower /middle class further to the brink.
