Rich have too much

[Alucard1]

Life is fair, it is all about action and the knowledge you have that you may use to be poor or to be rich, gaining a lot of knowledge plus skills would be a great advantage for you to get rich. Actually, those poor people shouldn't blame others for what they are now, we, ourselves would be the ones who would dictate our state in life. If we make ourselves known and be confident in ourselves then we can make more income and be rich in the future.

People don't need money, protests or violence. They need information.

Knowledge which allows them to put current events into perspective. So they need not rely on billionaire owned media, and billionaire funded experts to explain things.

Easy to say on paper but there is a reason that this access in information is not achievable, fake news websites are earning millions to spread misinformation to make the populace choose sides on the story when in reality there is no sides to choose from. It is not information that needs to be achieved, we should radically change the school's curriculum that only aims to manufacture workers that are passive enough to accept the system that continuously exploits them. What we need is a change so radical that any attempt to exploit the system again is easily quashed by the people. We should teach people to think critically and question everything they read on paper.

I disagree a bit. Many people have their own faults for staying poor by not getting proper education and gaining skills but there are many who are just unfortunate to born in some place or family where they don't even have the means to pay for education or learning skills because they might deal with poverty as well. In these cases it's important for super rich people to build free schools and to take care of them and government should do more for these section of the society since they are helpless!

They deserve to have too much because they worked too hard back in time

If there are laws that give all the wealth to the poor, then eventually there will be no more wealthy people. Then, how will the poor survive?

They’ll become wealthy enough and help other poor, the cycle continues.
Seriously, a law like this didn’t exist because many rich people don’t want to give up their money easily and they’ll do everything to pay taxes from small to zero at all, besides rich people work for it so poor people have to do the same thing, its not right to feed them all the time.

How is it fair that one person is must pay $1 million in taxes and another must pay 0, especially when the person that pays 0 gets more in benefits? Wouldn't it be fair only if each person pays the same amount of taxes and receives the same amount of benefits? It is argued that the wealthier person pays more because they can, but is that fair? It seems more like extortion to me.

If by "the same amount" you mean every single citizen should pay a specific, fixed sum of dollars, then is that called fair when you have someone earning billions vs someone living on a paycheck-to-paycheck basis paying the same amount of taxes and the poorer guy cannot even save a hundred bucks a month?

On one hand, I wouldn't mind it since the millions/billions have probably been earned the hard way. On the other hand though, it only allows the rich to earn even more while the poor are not allowed to progress anymore. This is why I call fairness impossible in society between the rich and the poor. It just cannot really happen. You can't steal someone's wealth just because they have it and you can't let the poor only get poorer. By going in between, it only opens up a large door for underground, black markets. No one is going to be fine with the idea of being a milli/billionaire and having their money casually and legally stolen by the poor.

At this point, it is almost impossible to bring the poor to the rich or vice-versa without being discriminated and having your money stolen. It's too easy for the rich to progress while it's becoming harder and harder for the poor to do the same as the economy is trembling. Wealth inequality will always be there.

[MCobian]

The difference between the rich and the poor is in their mindset. Rich people usually delay buying things that are not important and use their money
to buy assets, so that in the future assets that give money to the rich man. Meanwhile, if the poor get money, they will immediately buy consumptive
things first. So whatever government policy there will always be rich people and poor people. Therefore, if we want to reduce poverty, government
don't need to provide financial assistance to the poor, but educational assistance. Because most poor people have low education.

Everyone has a different opportunity in their life that not everyone can be rich in the same thing that we all have another purpose and destiny in life. So life is indeed fair because all we need to do is find something suitable for us to reach our goals. We should also keep moving forward and making our feet wet to face every struggle in life

The wealth don't have that kind of responsibility, it is ours. If you were born poor, it's not your mistake, but if you die poor, it's your mistake, that's what the saying says. We don't need any laws that's so lame, what we need is to be hard working, smart working, and have a lot of source of income in order to achieve whatever life status we want for ourselves, it is our responsibility, we don't rely it to the wealthy people.

[Latviand]

Rich have too much !!'
Nedd laws the money u dont use long time will be taken and goved to poor

Lets take and share to poor more taxes and taxes % to me im poor
Time for revolution !!!

Then people will choose not to work hard, they will become lazy relying on that kind of mindset.

The essence of life will not be that thrilling when you will get rich instantly.

If you don't experience the other side of being rich then when you get poor, you probably don't know what to do in that situation. Being poor doesn't mean that you will be forever poor, there are a lot of opportunities there that will help you make yourself successful and rich enough in life. You just need to engage on it, gain experience, work harder, and deal with the reality of life.

If you have a dream, do your best to achieve it because no one will help you achieve that but yourself.

[Natsuu]

I've had this perspective on how capitalist started.

It started when the hardworking ones do want to be separated from those who slacks and make fun of their own time instead of working to find food, clothing, etc.

The only problem I see is that the gap is now really big that the pinnacle of the richest man can even fed a whole country for decades and still not going into bankrupt.

If you don't allow anybody to be rich, then what are going to do if somehow you managed to get rich as well?

If you tax the rich too much to the level of making them poor that would be socialism.

If you knew no matter how hard you work that you would never get rich why would you even bother trying?

Making everybody equals financially would be a punishment for the hardworking smart people.

Why do poor people make multiple kids while rich/educated people make only 1 or 2?

Crying for help and asking the government to destroy the rich would harm the poor the most in the end.

You destroyed the rich and yourself become the rich, what then? The same poor people will riot against you. Do you have a plan for that scenario?

Every people will need to hard-working, no matter if they are poor or rich, because that will determine what they will be in the future.
If they want to have money or rich, there is nothing they can do but work hard.
With having a significant effort to work hard, I am sure our chance to become rich will be wide open.
We do not have to think about something that is not important and only focus on what we do while we need to plan what we will do.
Sooner or later, we will see a good result for us.

What needy people need is knowledge and proper education to raise their lives and not rely on what the rich people can give to them. Cryptocurrency is also a tool that can help the poor if they have knowledge about it.

Poor people? How can they use crypto currency? They don't even have a social media account, they can't use phones, how can bitcoin help these people? If you consider yourself poor, then there are a lot of people that are poorer than you. Most of them are just so lucky that we live surrounded by mountains that is why they can eat 2 times a day.

[Cling18]

Poor people shouldn't rely on rich people because honestly, rich people have worked and sacrifice a lot to achieve what they have. If a poor person remains poor until the end that simply means he didn't do anything to change his life. There's no shortcut to being rich but it takes perseverance and hardwork so anyone who works hard could possibly get rich in the future.

That is how communism starts, you know communism that has killed more people in times of peace than the worst wars in human history, private property is a concept in which the whole society is built, if you can suddenly take what it is rightfully mine then what it is the point of becoming a producer when you can just loot the stuff of other people, that is when you begin to see empty shelves in super markets and a lack of products everywhere, being rich is not wrong as long as those people reached that level by following the laws, but if they reached that level by violating the law then there is no doubt that their earnings are undeserved and should be penalized because of it.

[DrBeer]

I wonder one thing... so I have some of my own calculations, with a few millions I would live like a boss until the rest of my life, with my family! I could stop working and still have everything! So why people need 10 millions, a billion... zillion? Is it because of the bigger house, bigger boat? Is it more about controlling others with the money you have?
Why someone needs a billion dollar? When you can have a full life even with a lot less... those people are probably broken inside... it's what I think! They have some psychological problems...

You are somewhat wrong about the phrase "he is a billionaire." This does not mean that having entered his house, you will everywhere come across packs of money, of which there are a total of 1,000,000,000. No, he may have 100 bucks in his wallet ... and he may even have a lot of debts. When people talk about such people, they are not talking about the cache in their pocket, but about the estimated value of this person's assets.

[jacafbiz]

I think the one person that will blame the rich for been is rich is a poor man, poverty is mind set and people need to understand this, if I have money and you think I should give you, then that people will remain poor forever until he/she understands that you need to create value before you get money, this is what most of these poor people don't understand. If you take all money that Elon Musk has today, I believe in 10 years time, he would have become a billionaire again because he knows how to create value for others

With crypto no government will be able to just take money from rich or poor. So your revolution will have much more problems in future crypto societies than in today's fiat societies.

The problem with the rich is not that we have so many of them, it is the fact that they are not rich in the regular sense we all know of and it is harder to tax that. For example Elon Musk is super rich right now right? Nearly 200 billion dollars?

Well, he doesn't have 200 billion dollars, it is just that his stocks in tesla worths a lot of money and that is why he is rich. If he had 200 billion dollars in cash at some bank account, you could have said give some of it to tax, but when it is his stocks that worth that much, you can't really say anything like that. So what should we do? We should tax the companies that make a huge profit and increase in stock value, if you tax the companies a lot instead of people, those people who became rich thanks to stock increases would not be able to because companies would pay insanely high taxes and can't go up that much anymore.
