I don't think most people who defend billionaires do it because they think they will eventually end up in those positions themselves, no. In many ways it's like religion, they don't see the world as being broken, rather it being the way, the market wishes it to be, if so and so is a billionaire, than that's what the market has chosen. And anyone question these people is acting their core beliefs. When you're saying Bezos isn't the hardest working person at Amazon, then it's like telling them, "your religion is bad."

the people who run the market dictate it, how can people not see that its being manipulated

Like I said it's like religion, in the same way people who are the head of churches and mosques bamboozle their congregations without them knowing, people do the same with market lovers.

so p much like indoctrination i see what you mean

Cryptocurrency crashed yesterday simply because the NYT ran a hit-piece. The entire financial system is built off of manipulation and feelings, completely decoupled from reality. I interned in finance and even they talked about finance economy vs real economy

Define work harder because my uncle who welds I argue has a more difficult day to do compared to MJ in basketball training

Nowadays MJ works like a couple hours a week

Libertarians are woat

Imagine supporting capitalism in 2020. Its crucial we put the brakes on.

My issue is you having issue with guy thinking he deserves at least 40k a year

Title is so tone deaf

The most capitalistic country on Earth is killing capitalism

You can't make this up

I mean for the work it doesn't make sense and it would make the carpet cleaning industry fail

Which it should, it's built up like s*** and only a matter of time imo.

The dudes that work at these carpet places only do it because it's easy anyways (their words not mine). They could easily make 50k+ if they weren't lazy and worked at a restoration company (which is what I did after leaving a carpet company because I couldn't afford rent). They chose the easy route/job which comes with less money. Dude didn't deserve 40k because he was lazy at his job and expected it to be handed to him. He chose a s***ty career.

Tons of people can weld

There’s only one MJ

That’s the difference

Well that's more demand than how hard you work. Very unlikely you can die playing bball vs welding.

that’s the same thing
Hard work is defined by how many people are actually willing to do it or even are capable of doing it

And if you look at what people online have said, many are not even physically capable of handling the pro athlete routine, let alone becoming one of the best players, let alone becoming MJ

Also I’m confused about Bezos family wealth here.

I read online and it says his mother didn’t really do anything high end while his father was an Exxon engineer. Now his grandfather was a director for a company but this doesn’t really seem like he was raised by millionaires. Maybe close to a million in wealth but Exxon engineers at the time probably made less than 100k and a director maybe makes 300-400k

bootlicking for people who would bury you in a blink of an eye for a quick buck smh streets is done.

like people really believe they going to go from KTT2 to Jeff Bezos.

His family owned a 25k acre ranch they were part of the 10%, if not the 5%. On top of that he could afford to go to University, Amazon fails, and he can simply work a well paying 9 to 5, and become the Tim Cook of some other company.

His parents actually gave him a 300k investment into Amazon, Bezos is from a very well off background, Amazon is no near the risk you're making it out to be, it's no different to someone working for a company

Gewd

Real ones support social democracy and andrew yang

You can simultaneously dislike the highly financialised economy and its structure towards it AND support the economic system of capitalism

We should aim to implement the policies of Andrew Yang
