These pieces of shit at Davos, the IMF and the World Bank are the biggest parasites in the world. Bomb the latter two and we can make real progress.

Bombing is too good. People armed with pitchforks should decide what to do. And machetes. Oh, and barbed cat o' nine tails. That'll do nicely.

Mike, I'm probably in a minority but I much prefer your seductive and honeyed "hello, hello"!

We need to get Obama experts to calculate the social cost of Davos billionaires to properly account for their destructive effects, then use an executive order to slap a back-door tax on private jets, bespoke submarines and yachts to reduce the demand for these Davos meetings. We can take the proceeds to promote protectionism and industrial policy goals, elite worst nightmare.

No joke... I have argued for a while that we have to start looking on indirect 'inflation' creation by means of consumption and taxing accordly. Not all inflation is equal, for example travelling via planes is way more expensive and destructive than other activities, as are yachts etc. that shit would have to be taxed like there is no tomorrow.
