They can't help what they are. And part of their DNA is just naturally slashing wages, making working conditions worse, loving the environment irreparably, etc, etc.

In a way it's actually worse. You can't help being asian, female etc. Discrimination against those groups is bad but it can't stop them being asian or female. Some people have worked their backsides off and ended up rich - which is a good thing. We want people to work hard, take risks, and end up well off. Discrimination against those people is worse because it discourages them from trying to end up rich in the first place.

1%ers who give back to society are just as rare as 1%ers themselves. Tax havens exist because the ultra rich don't want to contribute to our society. They want to contribute to theirs.

Skellybones posted:Some rich people, I assume, are good people. I mean they can't ALL be cartoonish villains, right? Of course there's good rich people. Warren Buffett's pretty good from what I know, there's not much bad you can say about Dick Smith these days, everything I've ever heard about the recently-deceased head of Nintendo paints him as exactly what you would hope the head of Nintendo would be like. But their existence doesn't negate the influence of people like Rhinehart.

Good thing this only applies to liberals and not Marxists who recognise that it is not wealth in itself that is the problem, but the exploitative ways in which capital is employed that is the problem.

"I wanted to apply for a job but the interviewer saw on my resume that I was a former CEO of IBM and just laughed in my face, saying they didn't employ rich people." "I was walking down the street and people kept crossing to avoid me. I know it's because I'm rich." "The police keep harassing me. Every minor charge they can get away with making up, they lay it on me, just because I'm rich. Next time I see the Police Commissioner at the golf course I'll have a word with him." "I keep hearing rude jokes about rich people being stupid or greedy or evil. Whatever happened to making fun of the negros and orientals?" "It's subtle, but I feel like I'm treated differently when I go out with my family. Waiters will ignore me when I try to order, security guards keep a close eye on me, people stare at me and whisper. It's because I'm rich."

What would be the greater humiliation, losing preselection or running and then losing the seat to an independent? Discuss. The Lord Bude fucked around with this message at 12:18 on Apr 16, 2016 |

Lol I could try to make enough money to buy a house just how I want it and never have to worry about finding lovely rentals again, or dealing with landlords again, and make enough that I could retire and never worry about job searching again, or financial stability again, and travel around doing whatever the gently caress I wanted, buying whatever I wanted... but... I don't know man, I just feel so discouraged cause people hate rich people so much!
