Then who will pay for the WAR ON POVERTY...Shits like you are too fucking lazy to actually go out and earn money, so you whine all day, how your life is unfair. The day the poor die because they will starve by Joe Biden, the better, right?How about society doesn't allow billionaires? Why should society allow one individual to have so much power? Do you think the billionaires became that way because they earned it all on their own? Could the billionaires amass so much power/money without all of those other people who helped them, and worked for them? People become billionaires mostly due to luck or were born into wealthy families. They were at the right place and the right time, and that's how they become billionaires. These ultra-rich people are dangerous to democracy and society in general. One person having billions undermines the public good. There are seven billion people on earth, and just a couple of thousand are billionaires. You have a better chance of being struck by lightning twice on a sunny day and abducted by a UFO that looks like a flying taco, than becoming a billionaire.
If you appeal to Darwinian selection and "survival of the fittest", and "might makes right"..etc, to justify the billionaires doing whatever they want, then realize that the actual fittest and mightiest are those who unite in a group, a society, and say "NO" to the billionaires, making sure no one is starving, homeless, unemployed, without access to healthcare and an education. That's the priority and what is important, not the billionaires and their mansions and mega yachts. United we are more powerful than all of the billionaires and imperialists, divided we fall into their trap. We become slaves to their vested interests. We often hear the rich complain about the working class "eating the rich" , while it's actually the rich who are eating the poor and the working class. They're the ones eating everyone and are the first ones to complain about being eaten. They privatize the profits and make public the losses, requiring the working class to bail them out whenever there's an economic crisis. It's socialism for the rich and "pick yourself up by your bootstraps" for the rest of us.
The estimated aggregate cost of the War on Poverty is nearly $28 trillion, which is three and a half times higher than the $8 trillion total price tag of every major war since the American Revolution.
