Yeah, Donald Trump is the "king of capitalism" (lol) and politically the most powerful man alive but he is just a moron whereas you don't even have a proper job, but you are so much smarter!
You keep saying you are smart and have it all figured out, yet you whine about getting fucked over by the same people over whom you claim intellectual superiority. Something doesn't add up.
Except we didn't steal it, LR. There was no revolution. There was only hundreds of years of trading. The distribution and the productivity of the system are tied together.
That's what people who say Bezos could buy a McMansion for every homeless person are retarded. That's just not how capital works. You would understand if you actually managed any.
Nobody outside the CNN Trump Derangement Bubble cares if Trump got dirt on Hillary from another country. He was elected because a majority of Americans were tired of the usual bullshit.
One need only look at how miserable those who reject the natural hierarchy become. The ugly bitterness and resentment. It shows the consequences of adopting the collectivist mindset.
The truth is admiration and respect for one's betters is a very liberating and healthy mindset. It provides a connection to something greater than oneself and staves off crippling resentment.
the natural order of things for a very long time. It is only recently that the Marxist mind virus has penetrated the Western mind. What we are seeing right now is the immune response. /2
The Chinese have an expression: 天外有天人外有人 it means roughly there are always states of being and people that are beyond you. Traditional cultures have understood and accepted /1
The delusion of equality is also dangerous because it creates unrealistic expectations for those incapable of reaching the top. If we are all equal, there is tremendous pressure to achieve.
This erodes the natural bonds that tie the top and the bottom of the hierarchy together. Those at the top stop looking out for those at the bottom, and both top and bottom grow resentful.
A concrete example of this can be found among the US middle class, which, increasingly squeezed by taxation, will be less likely to perform charity since "they have welfare now."
In fact, it is more of a socialist problem. The delusion that we are all equal coupled with state-enforced redistribution causes many at the top to abandon their private responsibilities.
Inequality becomes a problem when those at the top of the hierarchy no longer feel a sense of noblesse oblige for those at the bottom. That is not a capitalist problem.
George Carlin would have been appalled at what the American left wing has become. He was an iconoclast which meant leaning left in his own time. Iconoclasm has changed in the 21st century.
