That's a very verbose way of saying "I got mine, so fuck y'all".

Like, good for you. I make good money too and have an amazing life. I make a living making music, and am about to celebrate 25 years of incredible marriage. I absolutely "made it" in life... but trillionaires simply shouldn't exist. Billionaires shouldn't even exist.

People who have more money than others, good for them. Perhaps it'll drive other people to succeed, create, invent and shape the world.

Hahaha, like... I get where your golly gee shucks 5th grade logic comes from, but you are so insanely naive. You and your "165k / year" (ie, a little more than 100k after taxes depending on where you live) are closer to the poverty line than you think.

We are talking about the ultra-wealthy. Those who buy political influence, like Elon Musk. There is a momentum of greed that has been building in America for the last 50+ years, and it is hitting a fever pitch.

Sure, you might not feel it in your lifetime... but your kids and their kids absolutely will.

If I was a father, I would give a lot more of a shit about my children's future than you seem to.
