    It works in their heads because they think billionaires and poor people both deserve their fate. It’s some kind of Divine Right thing.

        Stewardship is hard to learn. Most people won’t have the discipline not would they take the risks. I studied business.

          Those people would be NOTHING if not for all other workers. It’s a team game and the entire team should be rewarded and treated with respect. I’m not saying we should pay every job the same wage, I’m saying that all of the money shouldn’t flow to the few select people while the rest gets scrumbles.

        It’s not fair but it’s the only way. Stewardship is hard. Business is hard and risky. People often fail to recognize the risky nature.

    People do stop working when it’s all provided. Anyone with simple pattern recognition has seen that happen, not everyone of course, but a lot give up. Like this pattern I noticed of people saying stuff like this pretending to be altruistic and empathetic but really are just salty they don’t have the money to lie around all day.
