RE: Self-defeating Beliefs: Tax The Shit Out Of Those Billionaires, But I Want To Be One Of Them!

in #money8 years ago

Scarcity is a fact of the universe. Production alleviates scarcity, while plunder magnifies it. My question is always whether someone gained wealth by producing for others, or through plunder. The modern corporate system is so intertwined with government that they are nearly inseparable, so I doubt any billionaires made their wealth honestly, but calling for more plunder does not fix the root problem.
