So let's say the guy making $19/hr and the guy making $50/hr come together to take on the really rich guy, what then? They kill the rich guy and take his money? And do what with it? Do they split it evenly, or do they end up fighting each other for it? And what happens when that money runs out? Because it will run out. You give somebody who's used to living paycheck to paycheck a few million bucks and they will spend it. And once they have the money, aren't they then the rich guy? Meaning now they would be the target of other working class people? Is the goal to become a rich asshole? Or is the goal for everyone to make $19/hr?
Explain to me why shareholders, who do exactly 0 work and sit on their asses all day, should receive free money?
Why are people allowed to be parasites on society just because they have money?
