Many people are aggressive here towards rich, but what will happen to you if you become rich suddenly? Now you are not so eager to loose your money, don’t you? The sins of greed and pride visit every one. And only a few resist them. Just think about it. And I am not advocating for the rich, but saying to look from their perspective.
You’re just outing yourself as a piece of garbage. I would pay my fucking employees, and if I somehow did it myself ethically it would be winning a lottery and I would share it amongst my friends and family.
I already do stuff like this. I own a sports car and I fight for pedestrianizing our streets, including the main one near where I live. I ride public transit and take the bike share service to get places. A guy once asked me to sign a petition to get rid of paid parking and I told him that I literally do not care and that it’s only fair that I personally pay to park my personal vehicle on publically funded infrastructure given how many people on that street don’t own cars and still have to pay for them.
You’re just an asshole who has already been visited by the sins of greed and pride and you’re just pissy that you don’t have the resources to act on those feelings. Be a better person, and quit this projecting bullshit; I don’t want any part of it.
We understand their perspective alright. The concept of a millionaire or billionaire is simply disgusting because it is clear they use the power their wealth offers them to get out of paying their fair share while simultaneously needlessly exploiting us even further and in some cases meddling in politics or media so as to delude us into thinking: this is normal or – in your case – won’t someone empathize with the billionaire?
Power of all forms corrupts, but that doesn’t mean tyrants have a point when they disappear dissenters. Fuck the rich’s perspective, not because I’m above being a rich asshole (maybe I am, maybe I’m not, who knows) but because even if I was it wouldn’t justify hoarding my wealth at the expense of 99.9% of the population.

If I became rich suddenly, I would spend it on improving life for rural Americans.
You’re projecting and assuming everyone else is a corrupt scumbag like you.

Temporarily embarrassed millionaire energy here.

I have no problem with the rich. In fact I love them! I’d love to have as many rich as possible.
Unfortunately, that means, the gold hoarding dragon monsters we have currently at the top needs to go.
If I become a billionaire, Lemmings would be right to break out the French cutlery and bibs.
