Tax The Rich Quotes

“Every dollar spent on luxury is a dollar of disparity.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Giants in Jeans: 100 Sonnets of United Earth

― Abhijit Naskar, Giants in Jeans: 100 Sonnets of United Earth

“A homeless guy lifts a bread out of hunger, it's called burglary, but a cool-looking guy rips off an entire population, while spreading disparities wider than ever, it's called entrepreneurship. What a world! What a pathetic world!”
― Abhijit Naskar, High Voltage Habib: Gospel of Undoctrination

“Takeover Twattery (The Sonnet)

Oligarchs don't even care about the welfare of their employees,
And you want them to care about social welfare! Keep dreaming!
Oligarchs have no regard for the struggles of human life,
And you think they'll transform the world! Keep dreaming!
I thought Mark was bad for not treating facebook's health issues,
But the chief twat makes Zuck look like an incompetent simpleton.
Oligarchs are poster boys for regress, not crusaders for freedom,
Better to have a CEO without answers than one who answers to none.
However, like corrupt politicians, oligarchs are made by people,
If anybody is to blame it's the morons who put them in pedestal.
If you had the common sense to question your pavlovian attraction,
Spoiled brats could never treat society as daddy's mine of emerald.
Now more than ever it is imperative to ban large scale takeovers.
Moreover, it is vital to legally shun the rise of billionaires.”

“Humanitarian Industrialization

Fourth industrial revolution my eye! We haven't yet recovered from the disparities produced by the first, second and third industrial revolutions. Morons keep peddling cold and pompous dreams devoid of humanity, and morons keep consuming them like good little backboneless vermin. Grow a backbone already!

We always look at the glorious aspects of industrialization and overlook all those countless lives that are ruined by it. But it's okay! As long as we are not struck by a catastrophe ourselves, our sleep of moronity never breaks - so long as our comfort is unchallenged, and enhanced rather, it's okay if millions keep falling through the cracks.

So long as you can afford a smartphone that runs smooth like butter, it doesn't matter if it is produced by modern day slave labors who can't even afford the basic essentials of living. With all the revenue the tech companies earn by charging you a thousand dollar for a hundred dollar smartphone, they can't even pay decent wages to the people working their butt off to manufacture their assets - because apparently, it is more important for the people at the top to afford private jets and trips to space, than the factory workers to afford healthcare, housing and a couple of square meals a day.

And this you call industrialization - well done - you just figured out the secret to glory without being bothered by something so boring as basic humanity.

I say to you here and now, listen well - stop abusing revolutionary scientific discoveries in the making of a cold, mechanistic, disparity infested world - use science and technology to wipe out the disparities, not cause them. Break free from your modern savagery of inhuman industrialization, and focus your mind on humanitarian industrialization.”

“It's true in America you have a capitalist right to accumulate wealth.
But that does not mean you have a right to be a cumulative corporate capitalist asshole who lives to down-trot the poor and middle-class in America.

“If we left everything to the morons of ass-x and buttbook, in a matter of months the world will turn into a cold, disparity-infested loonyland, run by the single-minded and asinine pursuit of dollar, algorithm and self-obsession.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Mücadele Muhabbet: Gospel of An Unarmed Soldier

“Some people's career is Mars and Cars, mine is justice and equality.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Mücadele Muhabbet: Gospel of An Unarmed Soldier

“If half the population gave up their luxuries, the entire population will be rid of disparities.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Mücadele Muhabbet: Gospel of An Unarmed Soldier

“Terrorists don't walk around carrying guns and grenades any more, except for the confederate nitwits and religious blockheads that is. Today's terrorists walk amongst us, perfectly indistinguishable, with a fancy outside and a filthy inside. And here's my word to these violators of human rights.

I'm a billionaire, I'm a politician, I'm a bureaucrat, I'm a diplomat - if you so much as dream of exploiting people thinking such filth, mark the words of this gentalist eternal - it'll take me two shakes of a lamb's tail to wipe you out from the fabric of time. But I won't. No matter what, I'll defend the people, and still spare your life. You know why? Because, a terrorist is defined by how they treat the innocent, a reformist is defined by how they treat the terrorist. So mend your ways my child, because if you are terror, I am your grandfather.”

“Be A Tesla (The Sonnet)

In a world full of Elon Musks,
Be a Dan Price.
Use entrepreneurship to instill equity,
Not as a vessel of disparity's vice.
In a world full of Jordan Petersons,
Be a Jiddu Krishnamurti.
Use intellect to expand perception,
Not to turn back the clock of primitivity.
In a world full of Donald Trumps,
Be a Dolly Parton, be an Ocasio-Cortez.
Use fame and politics to alleviate anguish,
Not to feed on people's distress.
Let others adore the crook Edison all they wanna.
You for one be a Marie Curie, be a Nikola Tesla.”
― Abhijit Naskar, High Voltage Habib: Gospel of Undoctrination

“Not all con-artists are billionaires, but every billionaire is a con-artist.”
― Abhijit Naskar, High Voltage Habib: Gospel of Undoctrination

“The problem is, in a world of humans the humans focus on everything else but humanity. If we wipe out humanity from our fancy equations, then we only wipe out ourselves. With such acts of fallacy how can we expect there to be any advancement in the world whatsoever?

Even our very notion of advancement is all messed up. Our notion of advancement prioritizes colonizing Mars over feeding the hungry and sheltering the homeless. If this is advancement, then the pioneers of such advancement are nothing but cancer on the face of earth.

And just like you don't collaborate with Adolf Hitler, you don't collaborate with such pioneers, that is, with toxic billionaires. If you do, then you are no better than those rich and reckless kids of emerald mine owners.

So I say again, the fate of this world lies in the hands of the civilians - everyday, ordinary civilians. When the civilians are responsible, the world is well - when the civilians are sapient, the world is swell.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Find A Cause Outside Yourself: Sermon of Sustainability

“A society that aims for equality before liberty will end up with neither equality nor liberty.”
― Milton Friedman

“The world needs hands of humanness,
Not tentacles of authoritarianism.
The world needs the madness to make billions smile,
Not the mad pursuit of billionairism.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amantes Assemble: 100 Sonnets of Servant Sultans

“A world that confuses luxury with success, has absolutely zero understanding of the human condition. That's why they idolize rich and filthy celebrities with private jets and rolls royce, as some sort of demigods. If this is your idea of success, then you guys are more disgustingly primitive than the wildlife in the amazon. At least, wild animals don't pretend to be civilized.

Riches maketh filth, filth pursue riches. To live a life of luxury, or to dream of a life of luxury, doesn't make us ambitious, it only exposes the moron that we are. A species that has not realized simplicity as the way of life, will never in a million years have a society without disease and disparity.

I won't mince my words, and tell you straight. Wanna be a decent human being? Stay away from luxury. Because luxury is a violation of human rights, human health, and above all, human character.

It's funny really! Some people can't afford two wholesome meals a day, while others live with a private airport in their backyard. Some parents work their butt off to keep the clothes on their children's back, while others shower their kids with lamborghinis and teslas. If this doesn't open your eyes, perhaps you should try lobotomy. I'm sure you can find some unlicensed surgeon somewhere who'd do it for you if you offer them a trip to the bahamas, or better yet, a trip to space in your own spaceship.”

“Twit & Trash (The Sonnet)

There is nothing more cataclysmic than
a sea of unarmed citizens out for justice -
even the richest oligarchic leeches,
armed with billions of robots, tanks
and satellites, would crumble like twigs.

Born to privilege, most tech giants are tech trash,
loaded with more nuts than the Enigma machine.
In the salacious pursuit of the silicon dream,
these nutters are the antithesis of Tesla and Turing.

Tech giants are giants by the will of people,
takes less than a month to bankrupt their worth.
Any giant who thinks they are above the people,
are the puniest form of termites on earth.

Clockwork mice and clockwork minds both can
run great distances with no sense of why?
Children of earth still sleep without food,
yet colonizer kids are headed for the sky!”

“In his Gettysburg Address in 1863, President Abraham Lincoln spoke about “a government of the people, by the people, for the people.” Well, today, we have a government of the billionaire class, by the billionaire class, for the billionaire class.”
― Bernie Sanders

“Today in my view the most serious problem we face as a nation is the grotesque and growing level of wealth and income inequality. This is a profound moral issue, it is an economic issue, and it is a political issue.”
― Bernie Sanders

“You think, taxing the rich will magically fix everything, it won't - the money would still have to go through hungry politicians. Until we introduce proper training, testing and licencing in politics, like in medicine, to winnow out the incompetent candidates, nothing will change.”
