  • And yet when you ask the wealthy how they “earned” their wealth, they tend to gloss over the money inherited, the private schools, the elite education (with zero grants, all paid for), the social connections to other wealthy families, etc. So few came from absolute low income origins.

    And not a single damn billionaire can look someone in the eye an say, “I make so much I will never be able to spend it all, so I don’t see any reason I should need any more.” And the creepiest of those fucks idolize the LoTR books, but don’t seem to comprehend the message of Smaug and the Ring, which is that greed for wealth and power corrupts you, and berefts you of humanity.
