Want to use rich people like me to your advantage? Incent us to help those who need it the most. Lower corp taxes for comps that pay a min of $25 per hour. Lower corp taxes if employees get stock at the same pct as the CEO.
Bottom up incentives work. Dems never innovate. They bitch
You have more money than God. But you want incentives to do good, moral things?
I feel Mark is going to cry again soon that Bluesky is such a nasty place!
Martha from the top rope! You love to see it.
Get his ass, Martha!
Will you be my cool new aunt?
Queen Martha LV let me know if you need any help carrying your loot
Get his ass, Martha!
Martha Pearce 55 just fucking dusted mark Cuban
Fuck yeah Martha!
Get his ass Martha
MARTHA! MARTHA! MARTHA!
Get his ass, Martha.
Get his ass Martha
Fuck him up, Martha!
(Applause) This is why I muted Cuban the moment he came to Bluesky. He might be slightly less toxic than the rest of them, but that’s not saying much.
Get his ass, Martha
how about rather than incentivize the very rich we tax them out of existence so we don’t have to pretend they have good ideas
Get 'em!
Hell yeah, Martha. You are an icon.
Get his ass, Martha
Fucking thank you for pointing this out!
Martha. Get his ass.
Martha
Lower corp taxes? What is lower than zero for most of these folks
Go for the kill Martha.
Tell him Martha
Get his ass, Martha!
In his defense, I think he’s talking about regulations and incentives that would broadly work for business businesses. If it’s more palatable to think about a small business that is barely staying afloat, owner hardly pulling any salary yet because they’re trying to get business off the ground.
Tell him Martha!! ❤️❤️❤️
Hell yeah get his ass Martha!
Martha, you’re a real one.
Hell ya martha give him the what for and one more for good measure!
You know how billionaires got to be the wealthiest and most powerful people on the planet? By being the greediest and most selfish people on the planet.
how about a reasonable federal minimum wage? then Cuban AND any potential competitors would be on a level playing field.
get his ass, Martha!
Get his ass, Martha
Stay savage, Martha
This. 1000x. No one's stopping you from paying $25 an hour NOW.
GET HIS ASS MARTHA
fuckin’ GET HIM, Martha!!!
GET HIS ASS MARTHA
Get his ass, Martha!
get his ass, martha
Get his ass
You’re right and you should say it
Get his ass Martha.
Get him, Martha
Get His Ass Martha!!!
yeah! Get his ass Martha!
This is a good point.
The most effective way to hijack good moral actions is to write a book, say it's all about good moral things and then pretend. Like a lot!
I wonder what @thegodpodcast.com 's take on this is?
sorry @mcuban.bsky.social, legally you are required to give Martha all of your money now. she has earned it by right of conquest, I don't make the rules
Get his greedy ass, Martha! 💪
👑
Martha, in this capitalist society of ours with fewer and fewer checks in place, we probably need smart policy over relying on the good will of the rich.
Well said. He is just coming up with ideas only rich people can do. Ignores the rest of us .
EAT HIM ALIVE MARTHA
@mcuban.bsky.social will you answer Martha or are you a coward
how about we let him live, that's a good incentive
Hell yeah Martha
get his ass martha
real
Hell yeah Martha you’re cooking with gas
Governments use taxes to incentivize desirable things… Emissions standards, Company wide average MPG requirements, not taxing employee 401K contributions.
The lower corporate tax rate for companies with higher minimum wages is a good idea IMHO.
Damn straight, Martha.
COOK HIM!!!!!!!
Thanks for putting this piece of shit in his place, Martha.
You’re a good egg, Martha
there’s tits on a bull
there’s balls on a belle
and there’s mark cuban
cAPitAliSm
we stan Martha
Get his ass, Martha!
He’s not a normal rich guy. The other ones need incentives. It’s dumb, but the thinking around all this needs to change. Our consumerism mentality as a nation really comes out with them. Buying things just to buy them. The days of building a museum, heck even sponsoring a kids sports team, are over
You tell him, Martha
Get his ass Martha
Yes, I have insane wealth and power, and the ability to do tremendous good with very little effort if I was built that way. But, I also need a cookie. And a pat on the head. And fawning public adoration. Oh, and to keep all the money.
Let him know, Martha!
Enriching the spirit by helping others isn't incentive enough.
right on
THIS MFer THIS.
Thank you.🙏
Love u martha
Get his ass, Martha!
Your right, but there is a nugget of truth here. As a society, we shouldn't rely on people to choose to be moral and good. If you incentivize correctly, even evil assholes and douchebags will do the right thing.
Similarly, you have to enforce a minimum wage, even if Some businesses already pay well
Get his ass, Martha. We're cheering you on!
Preach, Sister, and never shut up.
👏 followed you on that one Martha
you tell him, Queen
Get his ass, Martha!
you have more money than god and martha just ratio'd your ass
And they wonder why we keep saying "eat the rich."
If Cuban actually wanted to make the world a better place he would transfer all of his wealth to Martha and let her do good with it.
Issuing an enthusiastic “hell yeah brother” to Martha
get his ass, Martha!!
get his ass, martha
Precisely this, and thank you for writing it so well.
GET HIS ASS MARTHA!!
Doña Martha you are a queen 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
god you're such a legend, mama.
You go girl
Get him, Martha.
Martha- you are a legend!
Maybe you can change the behaviour of an individual by appealing to their morals. But if you want to change the behaviour of a group of people, or companies, then yes, you have to talk about financial incentives, negative or positive. Sorry to all the highly principled people, that's how it works 😏.
You owned Bluesky today 🌟
Get his ass 😤
It says blocked post for me so I'm going to assume this is in response to Mark Cuban? (Blocked his ass bc I'm tired of his billionaire propaganda)
This is a weird thing about the US. The govt is there purely to assist people. Yet the US depends heavily on a relatively few people to donate to support social programs - which is totally backwards. The "donations" should be taxes collected by govt, and distributed to help a wide range of people.
Clearly, we older ladies still have something to contribute and... oh who am I kidding, wreck his lousy ass, Martha!!
This malevolent cretin going John Galt was exactly what I expected.
First the crypto posturing and then the demand for incentives/ bribes, give the whole game away. They have a sports team, they get attention and then they demand worship.
hell yeah martha, fuck it up
get his ass, queen 👑
Respect. Well-said.
Martha ma'am you're doing incredible here.
Also wages are already a business expense that can be used to reduce the tax they pay, he wants to double dip on it
get his ass ma'am
YES MARTHA
Get his ass, Martha.
That’s why we say there are no “good” billionaires. They act like they are better than the rest of us. Newsflash, they shit, eat, and breathe just like everybody else.
YES MARTHA
get 👏 his 👏 ass 👏 , martha 👏

Medic!
get his ass, Martha!
Nuke his ass, Martha!
They use orphan crusher machines to shield themselves from any notion that they could & should do more.
Like Mark's is the lower prescription drug price program. Forget the fact that prescription drugs would be free if corporate greed were massively curbed & the drugs were phenomenally available.
Exactly,"incent the rich to help the most in need" is a disgusting thing to say
You tell him, Martha!!!
When the wealthy refuse to do what's right without being paid to do so, it tells me all I need to know about whether we should even HAVE the wealthy.
Get his ass, Martha
💯 He should pay taxes like the rest of us. We don’t get any special tax breaks or favors. We do good things for our communities WHILE we work all day and night, pay our taxes, and don’t get “incentives” to just be decent people
The Martha takedown is swift and savage. Get his ass, Martha
Cuban hasn't yet been haunted by three ghosts and it shows
Get his ass, Martha
Get his ass, Martha!
He needs more money in order to want to help people. Checks out.
This was an excellent post, made my evening, thank you
It's curious that this moral outrage and talk of "obliterating" billionaires is directed at the billionaire who used his wealth and knowledge to create a system whereby average people can access necessary medications at reasonable prices.
Martha making it PLAIN
what a legend
Yet another reminder that every billionaire represents an abject failure of public policy.
Go off queen.
“Why be nice if I don’t get a prize?” Pre-schooler mentality. He stopped listening before they taught him about sharing. It’s gotta be a sad and lonely existence thinking no one rewarded you for already being rewarded for all the rewards you’ve hoarded. Cue Family Guy song “These problems matter.”
Martha he is so fucking full of shit!
I notice it's been more than 12 hours and he hasn't responded...
get his ass, Martha
Get his ass, Martha
👑 🫴 you dropped this, queen
get that schlub’s ass
get his ass, martha!!!!!
Get his ass, Martha!
“You need to incentivize me to put money back in the pockets of the workers who made me rich in the first place.” That’s what I heard him say.
Time to start taxing the hell out of corporations whose folks on the top make 100s of times what the bulk of their staff makes.
Cook his ass Martha
Technically anyone with any money has more money than God.
"Roses are red
Candles are lit
Do no harm, but take no shit"
Words Martha probably lives by
cook em MP
get his ass, Martha
get his ass, martha !
Tell him, Martha! 🙌👏
Hell. Yeah. Martha.
HELL YEAH
“Incent me, daddy.”
Get his ass, Martha
You tell him, ma’am. It’s a profound moral wrong that the people’s resources get stolen by crooks like Mark.
The current strategy of “let them do whatever they want” doesn’t seem to be paying off. Incentives might
hell yeah martha
get his ass martha
Hell yeah Martha! Dunk his ass!
get his ass, Martha!
Martha nuked his ass from orbit
Burrrn! :D
Every time some rich dude talks about needing some “incentive” to actually do something helpful with all of their money, all I can think of is this scene.
I can only imagine how incentsed this is making him right now
The billionaires think they are god. They demand that we sacrifice more for them to act in humanity’s behalf. The same as it ever was
Get his ass Martha!
Get his ass!
Get his ass, Martha!
hell yeah, Martha🖤
bro got on bluesky to cook a billionaire
Hell yeah
Hell yeah, Martha
Considering the collective actions of billionaires, who often do not do good, it might be useful.
