There are plenty of people with those attributes that aren’t the richest person in the world. Almost like being a billionaire is about things other than smarts or talent, huh? We are not a meritocracy. Or all the incompetent politicians y’all around here love to hate would be pillars of hard work and competence. Bastions of our society. Those who deserve their wealth and power. Are they?
only 1 can be richest person in the World. Why do Socialist keep track of other people's money like it should be theirs? The Queen of Socialism just took a $50k vacation paid for by others and you don't even roll your eyes.

Someone hit the Lottery on Christmas Eve. $1.8 BILLION. Even if you only got 1/3 of that after taxes and whatever other BS you'd have to pay, thats still $600 MILLION.

ALL PIGS ARE EQUAL, BUT SOME PIGS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS.

They don’t understand how morally poor they are and why that leads to such misery.
There is a way that seems right to one, but the end thereof are the ways of death (Proverbs 14:12)

I blew $10 on 5 Powerball plays yesterday morning. Two of my five plays actually matched ONE winning number.

The Walton's family business employs over 2M people. Amazon employs over 1M. Other companies w/ billionaires at the top employee in the hundreds of thousands each.

On the flip side, small businesses make up the majority of all companies in the USA.

Again.....thanks for playing.
So champion them instead of megacorporations. Would at least be an improvement. But no, you love Musk et al.

We should all be able to have occasional 50k paid vacations. But y’all would rather concentrate wealth in the hands of the few than distribute it among the many. And so janitor Joe can’t take a vacation. He has to keep working.

THIS! Why do they excuse these people becoming rich as can be off our backs and they don't care!! Why is that? (besides they are dumb) Why do they never be consistent and speak out against their side as well?
It isn’t me that doesn’t care. It’s y’all. Not a single person responded to my post calling out our fake meritocracy. Because you have no rebuttal. As you yourself state here, politicians are the perfect example. Are these people that run our society the most capable? Are Nancy Pelosi and AOC the best minds and work ethics our country has to offer? No? Almost like merit and competency aren’t what propel someone forward in our system, huh? The lie of meritocracy the corpos feed you to keep you in line.

So if the rich deserve what they have in our society, how’d they get it then?

Private property ownership is the foundation of this country. So yes, it is mine.
To quote Einstein:

“Man is, at one and the same time, a solitary being and a social being. As a solitary being, he attempts to protect his own existence and that of those who are closest to him, to satisfy his personal desires, and to develop his innate abilities. As a social being, he seeks to gain the recognition and affection of his fellow human beings, to share in their pleasures, to comfort them in their sorrows, and to improve their conditions of life. Only the existence of these varied, frequently conflicting, strivings accounts for the special character of a man, and their specific combination determines the extent to which an individual can achieve an inner equilibrium and can contribute to the well-being of society. It is quite possible that the relative strength of these two drives is, in the main, fixed by inheritance. But the personality that finally emerges is largely formed by the environment in which a man happens to find himself during his development, by the structure of the society in which he grows up, by the tradition of that society, and by its appraisal of particular types of behavior. The abstract concept “society” means to the individual human being the sum total of his direct and indirect relations to his contemporaries and to all the people of earlier generations. The individual is able to think, feel, strive, and work by himself; but he depends so much upon society—in his physical, intellectual, and emotional existence—that it is impossible to think of him, or to understand him, outside the framework of society. It is “society” which provides man with food, clothing, a home, the tools of work, language, the forms of thought, and most of the content of thought; his life is made possible through the labor and the accomplishments of the many millions past and present who are all hidden behind the small word “society.””

Irrelevant.
Germaine. Concentrating wealth is not efficient. Distributing and using it is.

I guess my friends and myself must be the few. We all retired or will retire very well thanks to Capitalism and investing in our 401Ks. It can work for anyone the same way if they try. If I took a poll I doubt one of them give a crap what Musk has.

to be fair most people don't respond because you are a fool.

That’s because you’re old. Your working history was during America’s postwar boom when we controlled the entire globe. It’s built on the blood of those around the world we’ve dominated. Have you checked on how Millennials and Gen Z are doing in your capitalist paradise? Hint: not well.

Yes I do it everyday. You should try it. If you are depending on the Government to feed you they can also starve you whenever they want.
Nothing you have is your own. You stand on the backs of the numberless billions who gave you the opportunities you had. You dishonor their work and sacrifices by being so self-aggrandizing.
