That Awkward Moment When Actor Bill Nighy Realizes He's Made A Huge Mistake
Bankers' bonuses have hit 80 billion pounds since the 2008 financial crisis. Yep, I said billion there. How can we realistically tackle this gross inequality? Wellllllll the Robin Hood Tax sounds like a good start. Backed by a number of top-dog financiers, Bill Gates, and even the Vatican, it is a "tiny tax on share, bond, and derivative transactions carried out by banks and hedge funds known as a financial transaction tax." And a lot of countries in Europe are talking about it. Yay for smart ideas that address the serious imbalance of wealth!Watch Bill Nighy and these "Walking Dead," "Harry Potter," and other film stars act as country leaders and take a look at what the world might be like in 2024 with this tax adopted by a bunch of countries ... except my country, England. Will we change that? And hey, America, could this happen in your country?
