7 EU countries must reach the quorum. And in total 1M Votes are needed. Check yours in the chart and share, cross post etc.!

The petition calls for the introduction of a wealth tax on very large fortunes. Sign the petition here

    • Microsoft: monopolist founded with a “small loan”
    • Amazon: monopolist founded with a “small loan”
    • Berkshire Hathaway - founded by a congressman’s son with access to wealth and education
    • CDProjekt, wow an outlier!
    • TOYOTA - generational wealth

    Literally every single successful business made it’s founder a fortune

    LMFAO “the winners won”. Any other tautologies you want to spout? “The losers lost” maybe?

      Even if you had access to the capital, you’d most likely fail - because running a business is hard

      For every Bill Gates or Bezos there are dozens if not hundreds who sunk the entire initial investment.

      You hate survivors for some reason.
