>wahhh people who work harder make more
>>70709971
Actually, that's not what the video was really about.
I feel that it is disgusting and that there needs to be an economic purge on people that make more than a million dollars a year.
>>70709971
I'll take false consciousness for $500, Alex.
what leftists dont realize is that they themselves are the top 10% of the world. the rest of the world would eat them alive if given the chance.

they would eat you first

But you must agree accruing infinite wealth is bad right? So many people defend the rights of those with tens of billions of dollars while they will never be worth one million dollars in their life. The working middle class is getting jewed hard
>>70710708
Yes. I agree. In fact it disgusts me that people can obtain that amount of wealth in society. At that point in time it should be distributed to build roads, schools, hospitals, ect. Not given to idiots so that they can get iphones.
We need to go back to the times when pocket change was valuable currency.

Amount of tax paid is exactly the same so there's that.

Waah I run a god damn lemonade stand and my teef hurt

>>70710228
ah yes the good old leftist tactic of thinking with emotions rather than logic
>>70710228
I feel like you're an idiot. Wealth inequality is natural and inevitable in a free society when you have intelligence, talent, drive, etc. inequality. Stop whining and kill yourself commie. I literally do not care at all that someone else has money because I'm busy making a living for myself. The irony is the more that retards like you clamor about wealth inequality, the more regulations get passed which benefit only the wealthy. They write the laws and they have the money to comply with them, stop trying to get government involved you fucking cuck. Just fuck off already.
>>70709790
You're asking the wrong question.
Do you think it reasonable to expect to find complete wealth equality anywhere?
Also this is not a zero sum game. There is no fixed amount of wealth to be divided among everyone. Wealth can be created through equipping yourself with skills and knowledge other people are willing to pay for.

you know australians aren't really people, right?
>>70711942
Z Z Z ZERO SUM GAME! ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL AND MONSTER TRUCK MADNESS!? I was waiting for it. Once your genius-ass comes up with your no sum ideas, does your no sum money just pop outta nowhere? No. It either is spent or created but you didn't do that

I, for instance, work at an accounting firm. I do tax returns for wall street executives making 1.5 million a year. Some of these accountants charge these guys 10 grand for a tax return that takes 5-8 hours. Find out what rich people want, get it to them, become rich. Not a hard concept to follow.

We're literal Übermensch. We're like the Fremen in Dune.

Sadly a lot of people don't. Hence the popularity of the populist commie rat Bernie Sanders.

You say you can't add up wealth because once you go and put your new shit in the economy you create the wealth that comes with it. No you didn't and learn to read better or use better trolling techniques. There was nothing confusing as to what I had written. Again. Now a second time. So be quiet now

>doesn't mention which race is the 1%

Socialism will kill me, you and everyone you know.
Equal is Unfair.

What's the deal with wealth distribution?
Who's wealth is it? Who distributes it? I think I'll just let the government handle it.

Hello Ayn Rand. On your way to go cash some more social security?
>>70713067
He was right on both counts - you can't speak in a coherent manner, and monetary wealth is emergent and can be created.

So wait, what is the problem then? There's nothing wrong with rich people making money, but by the looks of that graph, they're hoarding a shit load of money to the point that it is having an impact on the lower classes, and their way of life. What point am I missing?
>>70714215
No. You do not possess the ability to influence monetary policy and wealth is not a variable once your ideas come into play. So pedestrian and I don't care how you might pretend to critique my style or not

People who spend less and invest more, work hard and take risks and ultimately provide value to people are the ones who get more value back.
Sounds fair to me, if fair could ever mean anything sensible.
