    In fairness, I think there is one behaviour that helps you become a rich fuck, and that’s a psychopathic disregard for the welfare of all other humans. I’ve had opportunities to make more money in life if I were willing to just screw over others, but I couldn’t live with making weaponry, price gouging or otherwise wrecking the lives of fellow proles.

    Nonetheless, lets take away all the money from all the rich fucks and give it a try, eh? It should be obvious to anyone that capitalism inherently causes capital to accumulate in select few hands either way, but it’d be a nice step one.

      Yeah.

      We build a society that rewards cunning, dismisses beauty and art as irrelevant, and morality as detrimental to the machine, and then we scratch our heads wondering why there’s so much corruption in authority positions?
