Disability Cuts in the United Kingdom

I know this is a sub mostly for U.S. politics, but I felt like I needed to mention this. Because, really, it relates to broader themes of the neoliberal hellscape that we all live in, in the West.

In the U.K disgusting neoliberal piece of human trash Keir Starmer has proposed cutting benefits to disabled people. The money they need to survive. I actually have a friend who is disabled, lives in the U.K. and cannot work. She risks getting her disability cut and not being able to feed herself anymore.

Supposedly this will save about 5 billion pounds annually.

I now want to give you my response to this news:

List of British billionaires:

Michael Platt, net worth: 18 billion.

Jim Ratcliffe, 15,9 billion.

James Dyson 13,4 billion.

Alexander Gerko, 10,3 billion.

Denise Coates, 10 billion.

Christopher Hohn, 9 billion.

Simon Reuden, 9,4 billion.

David Reuden, 9,4 billion.

Nik Storonsky, 7,9 billion.

Anthony Bamford, 7,7 billion.

Joe Lewis, 6,3 billion.

Clive Calder, 5,7 billion.

John Reece, 5,3 billion.

Andrew Currie, 5,3 billion

Ian Livingstone, 4,6 billion

Richard Livingstone, 4,6 billion

John Coates, 4,6 billion

Michael Ashley, 4,6 billion

Alan Howard 3,9 billion

Laurence Graff, 3,4 billion.

This does not include any hundred millionaires or other people like that. Collectively these 19 people own about 150 billion pounds. A less than 5% wealth tax on these people would instantly raise over 5 billion pounds. And every single one of them would have 95% of their money left and still be multibillionaires.
