@drq@mastodon.ml@yogthos@mastodon.social @copyme@mastodon.online For the record, I don't really have a problem with somebody being rich. If you won big - good for you, nice porsche you got there.
But the thing is, the games are not only about if you've won. They are also about how you did it. That's why there are rules to most games.
I have only praise for people who worked hard their whole lives for their money, or invented something nobody ever even thought they need and got rich because of that.
The 99% of cases are _not that_. Vast majority of billionaires got rich either by inheritance, or by hiring people to do shit for them and then cheaping out on them as far as they would allow, or via invented wealth like investment bubbles syphoning money that were never there in the first place, which is effectively an elaborate scam, or monopolizing some industry using patents, copyrights or exclusive deals, in which case you don't have to be better than others - you just have to be richer than other motherfuckers.

But no, in the same 99% of cases that's not even "the ends justifies the means" story, they just use this money... to get more money! It's a feedback loop, and it's borderline insanity.
