>I notice an interesting trend with a large chunk of the discussion being centered towards why [rich person's] [behavior] is not [as bad] as you think. As opposed to inherently thinking anything rich people do must be evil? And that all your problems are caused by the "1%" ? Maybe most people just take responsibility for their own lives and their finances. |

But if half of the people are born on someone else's land, have to work multiple jobs to cover basic expenses, have no chance of getting good education without becoming debt slaves and get thrown under the bus if they ever get sick, then maybe, just maybe, the expression "personal responsibility" has completely different meaning for them from the meaning that the people born as land owners, and can enjoy free* (or very affordable) education and healthcare as well doors opening for them throughout their whole lives because of their name or relations.
(For a household making $2m or more per year, a $60k/year education is close to free.)
