The realization that the wealth at the top has to come from somewhere seems so fundamental to me, but there are a lot of people out there that just can't connect the dots.
The billionaires generate the value! The only thing holding us back from a tech utopia are the poors collecting welfare and lazy workers asking for a livable wage. :so-true:
I have had conversations with finance chuds and we were right on the same page with economic analysis, the fecklessness of liberalism, the horrors of warmongering, etc. Then they were like "that's why nobody should pay any taxes" and I was like "actually, it's why you should be killed"
That's the original fallacy of the whole Randian thought process, that somehow all actual wealth and value comes pouring forth from the fountainhead of the ubermensch, rather than created from material dug out of the earth and reshaped by the labor of many hands
