🧵1/6 First time homeless seniors are dying on the streets of the United States due to insanely escalating rents. But sure, use our structures of government to provide even more $$$s for billionaires. youtu.be/i_iaFO9PPkY?...

🧵2/6 Corporate welfare provided to those with an abundance of $$$s. Those fully capable of paying their own 'costs of doing business'. Corporate welfare: Government financial assistance, subsidies, tax breaks, or other favorable policies provided to private businesses or specific industries.

🧵3/6 Yet despite BILLIONS of $$$s in welfare routinely received - ultra wealthy not only MAINTAIN THEIR 'DIGNITY' - they are revered. Buying yachts etc. with riches gained via unsustainable-profit-gaining practices. While costs of maintaining/expanding their businesses are paid via our tax dollars

🧵4/6 Example of the ultra wealthy: Individuals who own Private Equity Firms. The SAME Private Equity Firms who have/are buying up residential housing throughout the United States and artificially escalating rents (regardless of housing locations) using collusion-enabling software like RealPage.

🧵5/6 Our tax dollars used to cover costs of maintaining/expanding their businesses. They use dollars 'saved' to buy up housing across the United States. They then raise rents by insane amounts (to gain more unsustainable-profits) thus creating a 'housing crisis' forcing elderly into the streets

🧵6/6 BTW: These SAME Private Equity Firms are responsible for closing hospitals/small businesses across the country. So. 'What benefits' are 'we the people' - as a society - gaining by providing the ultra-wealthy with this responsibility-free, cushy, privileged lifestyle? TAX the BILLIONAIRES!
