Pointing out here this comment wants to hold the successful back, not advance the poor. It's not a zero sum game.

Look at the modern labor market and tell me they aren't trying their darndest to make it one.

And yes, we should "hold back the successful". Taking 99% of a billion dollars still lands someone with a career's worth of savings to tap into. That's how utterly ahead they are. And it's clear they used that power to ransack the nation. So be luck "holding them back" is the only stipulation here.

It would be nice if you didn't put words in my mouth, but even HN is the internet
