| > The problem is that everyone is trying to concentrate their wealth Here you see people as individuals. > and that only the wealthy have the means to achieve it. And here you distinguish classes. I think this is a class issue, with at the top level: the "wealthy to the extend that you do not have to work to survive" at one side, and the "rest of us" on the other side. Concentrating wealth to the extend that you can scrape by is a joke. This is called scraping by. I saw this quote once and had to laugh: "Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat, but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires." https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/John_Steinbeck I had to think if it when reading your comment :) |
