Why let the politicians and banksters loot the treasury all by themselves? I guess it makes sense to them "share the wealth", since they'll never have the opportunity to buy a home or raise a family?
It doesn't seem to make sense to me to pursue this path as a politician; didn't work out well for Louis XVI and his ilk, nor for the inevitable populist reformers/revolutionaries like Robespierre.
But, I guess the guillotine is quick, if you've gotta go somehow. I wonder if politicians realize that's where the populist desperation resulting from this plan of theirs ends?
