So you think the only good people out there are middle class, poor or other non rich classes? Or are humans just inherently terrible?

There are good rich people. However, the level of wealth billionaires have amassed is disgusting and disgraceful. No individual should control that much wealth, and I’m unaware of a billionaire who hasn’t caved to the pressures to hoard.

Billionaires should pay significantly more taxes than they currently do, and I’m fucking tired of the incredible power they wield over our elected officials and outrageous tax loopholes they continuously exploit. They’ve earned their fortunes on by often standing on the shoulders or necks of society - they owe the country and society that allowed this kind of unbridled capitalism to exist more than 1.4% of the taxes they should have paid.
