There’s your trickle down.

I have seen slum lords spend hundreds of thousands to avoid tens of thousands in septic repairs.

This totally tracks.

No. Fuck them. Dump their sewage in their pools.

So instead of a $10M municipal contract to upgrade the sewer lines, it was easier to just get the republicans to add a specific waver and force the neighbouring town to take their sewage.

I’m pretty sure Bezos can find that in his couch, and the whole island is billionaires.

I hope rising sea levels swallows their bullshit island.

so fucking sick of these people playing Asshole Tycoon with our world

Wait wait wait wait

Many billionaires live on a man made island ioff the coast of Florida?

I mean if they're all in one spot, I guess this makes things easier

They need more than a gated bridge to stop the floods they will endure.

Here's the NYT article they're aping instead of checks notes whatever the fuck the "Daily Galaxy" is.

Why is every, like, sixth word bolded? Like I know pragmatically why, but it's so transparently designed for brainrotted zoomers who think 300 words is "long". What a slop trough of an article.

jared/ivanka and tom brady live there too. surprised there isn't a multi-billion dollar federal grift involved yet.

I hope their pedophile island gets taken over when the oceans rise.

To put this in perspective, Jeff Bezos just one of the islands residents makes $10 million dollars every hour and 20 minutes. That's day and night, round the clock, whether he is 'working' or not. He makes more in 14 minutes than most people do in their entire lives.

This would be like an average person paying $1 to fix their towns sewage problem. It costs approx $420 on average to have your septic tank pumped, which 'normal' people with septic tanks have to pay every 3 to 5 years. They can't pay off a politician to have their neighbors pay for it, and they probably wouldn't if they could. Bozos could have just paid the $10 mil, and donated another 10 mil to upgrade they system and it would have been the equivalent of pocket change for him.

People act like leftists are just jealous of Billionaires, it has nothing to do with jealousy. The literally insane levels of greed and entitlement it takes to think this way is off the charts. They would rather pay off a politician and change the law than to just pay their bills like a normal person. This is toxic thinking of the highest degree.

I loved going to this Island and killing people in GTA Vice City. I hope GTA 6 includes it.

Just billionaire shit

The billionaires are doing billionaire stuff again!

The entitlement of the rich is amazing.

hey Siri, where can I get a few of those cool aquatic drones that Ukraine is using in their war with Russia?

This is definitely legit, this happened awhile ago: https://sh.itjust.works/post/40291459

These people need to have the septic thrown over them and into their mouths. Let the economy trickle down into them!

The neighbors demanded compensation for the new costs they would incur.

Lucky for the poor billionaires, the ever-fast working Florida Republicans quickly passed a law that "prevents cities from blocking or charging for the extension of sewage systems to neighboring areas, ensuring that Indian Creek can now tap into Surfside’s infrastructure—free of charge."

If you vote Republican you're a wealthy bigot or a tool.

These people have Our BEST INTERESTS at Heart! That's why they are LITERALLY TRYING TO SHIT ON US!

The true form of trickle down economics is coming into plain view I see.

While the law may have been passed legally, it raised serious questions about the broader implications of this type of influence. After all, not everyone has the means to lobby for such favorable treatment.

No shit. We need to stop agreeing to call this sort of thing Legal or we need to drop any affiliation between Legal and Just/Fair. The legal system is a corrupt, and therefore antiquated, system in the US.

ALSO, just because I was curious, the article doesn’t say where the sewage is going right now. Usually you wouldn’t construct houses with nowhere for the sewage to go so minimally it would be going into some sort of septic tank? Aren’t they living there already?

Do we have the coordinates of this island? Just for like archival purposes.

Oh, they need to dig a latrine. I'm willing to gift a shovel. They can go fuck themselves with it.

I don't understand how they can be forced to cooperate. It's illegal? Okay fine, who are they planning to take to jail?
