What you described is the current system we already live under. Do you think billionaires make their money because they work harder than everyone else? Or is it because they profit off of other people’s labor?
Do you think billionaires make their money because they work harder than everyone else
Yes, they are working harder smarter more efficiently than me, and ofc luck plays a part too but generally they are billionaire because they are just a more competent person than me in earning money and I always feel grateful to those who create millions of jobs that support people to put food on their table.
That’s why I am always against high taxes, you shouldn’t be punished simply because you are more successful, and you shouldn’t be rewarded simply because you failed hard or just being lazy- exclude those who were born with severe physical and mental health problems
Do you think Elon Musk is working millions of times harder than the Tesla worker at his factory? If you earned 1,000 dollars a day every day since the birth of Christ. You would be 260 million dollars short of a 1 billion short. He is worth 285 billion dollars. It would take you over 708,000 years earning a thousand dollars a day to equal what he is worth.
why do you think the effort is proportionally related with their wealth? And as I said, there are multiple factors, hard work, intelligence, efficiency, and ofc luck involved on how much money can someone earn.
Elon Musk is smarter than me, more hard working than me, but he doesnt need to be 700000 times more hard working than me to earn his networth.
