Tax the super rich now or face revolution

I don't agree with a lot of the predictions in this article. I was just surprised nobody had already posted it.

Price mechanisms (food being expensive) only work when there is elasticity of supply - ie when it is possible to produce more. With food it isn't. So it's not a lack of food, it's too many people. (Too many societies where women don't or can't choose their family size.) Even if you think there is a speculative conspiracy to prevent food being affordable to all 7 billion of us, do you think we can produce enough for 10 or 15 billion? I don't. Of course, I'll get called a eugenicist for stating a plain fact.

This was submitted yesterday, garnered quite a lot of comments, but is now dead.

I wonder if people don't think it's entirely appropriate for HN.
