The post you are reporting:
"What Alexander suggests is economic suicide, pure theft and belongs in broken Mickey Mouse dictatorships. Totally bonkers, the kind of thing that should be restricted to student common-room debating and then forgotten about in the real world"
Barry is clearly stating that the super-rich in the UK, who have each private assets of at least £100 million, in many cases hundreds of millions of pounds, and in some cases over £1 billion, should be allowed to keep all this "wealth", and continue adding to it!
He then goes on to try to make people believe that the business people in Britain, who he claims to be speaking for, are all included in this category! That they all are super-rich.
The fact is, many business people in Britain, people who own a business, and have entrepreneurial skills, are NOT in the super-rich category.
Barry is NOT talking for them, he is only talking for the super-rich who have no skills other than hoarding the Country's money in private assets.
People with entrepreneurial skills, trying to run a factory or business, would probably agree with me that our economy has gone bezirk owing to the wealth-hoarding of the super-rich, who Barry is trying to associate with business owners, many of whom probably earn no more than tens of thousands of pounds a year in personal income once all expenses are paid!
These people have obviously no connection to the super-rich.
In fact many business people have gone bankrupt, and are going bankrupt, and will continue to do so, because in many cases they end up earning only thousands of pounds a year, and then end up in debt!
In fact a Wealth-Redistribution Law would be as much to the benefit of the poor as to many of the people running a business, as it would allow normal people to do their everyday shopping and purchase items which they need, which is what businesses rely on!
It would allow the Government, Central and Local, to have the funds to start training courses and introduce the unemployed to employment opportunities, and to create production where other people have closed the factories down and transferred production to India and China.
What Barry writes, comparing business people with skills to the super-rich whose only skill is to hoard the Country's wealth, is a complete deception of economic reality.
I would suggest that many business people in Britain would laugh at Barry's comparisons!
He doesn't speak for them, but only for the wealth-hoarders!
Barry, what these wealth-hoarders do is theft, to use your definition, and it is utterly surprising that you compare them to business people with skills.
Do you actually have any idea how many companies and firms in Britain have gone bankrupt? How many people with skills have been driven into bankruptcy while others hoard and amass wealth in the hundreds of millions of pounds each?
You are NOT talking for business people!
