tax the rich

Shortly after the last crisis we are facing the inevitable aftereffects:

a considerable rise in unemployment, which hits mostly young people and threatens their future prospects; a clear rise in debt overloads of states that is being met by austerity programs at the expense of people who have not triggered the crisis and are already working hard under precarious conditions. At the same time rich people, banks and multinational trusts are not even asked to contribute to the tax load. No question who is really paying for the crisis!

We demand: TAX THE RICH!

If there is only a handful of people who possesses more than 50% of the world´s wealth there must be a change of course: higher property taxes, a worldwide financial transaction tax and inheritance tax are necessary!
