As the Bible said, it's harder for a rich man to enter heaven than to march a camel through a needle's loop, but even though God can redeem even THAT deplorable being, that being probably will be too high on sniffing its fart gasses and sending its children generational wealth to live easy debauchery, baby please, to seek the redemption of the savior
They're so dumb they eat it up, Easier to blame someone else for your failings than to look inside....
And you're doing exactly what the elites want by framing this as a democrat/republican issue. You don't think there is any concessions the Billionaire class could make to improve the lives of the working class?
I’ve always wondered, when some investor or hedge fund manager makes a gajillion dollars off some well-timed moves, where is the money coming from? Who is the loser in that scenario that is paying them? It’s not like they came up with some more efficient way to produce a useful widget, they’re just shuffling money around.

There isn’t a fixed quantity of wealth in the world. Outside of some relatively esoteric investment vehicles, the overwhelming majority of wealth creation is due to the pie getting bigger.

Yes, the pie is getting bigger but only few own most of the pie. Meanwhile the unwashed masses struggle to rent or buy an overpriced home because the hedge funds bought most of the homes already.

Isn't capitalism fun?
Meanwhile, a worthless loser like you is doing well enough to sit around and b!tch about it on the internet.
Without the innovators that end up being the richest people you people would all still be sitting around the cave bitching about other problems you're incapable of sorting out yourself.

'Innovators' don't end up being the richest. The people who can buy or steal or copy the tech from the innovators, end up being rich. For instance, Elon Musk is not an innovator. He pretends that he is, but he is not.
Regarding the 'pie getting bigger', the valuation of the stock market is just based on today's trading price. The pie didn't double in size just because the stock prices doubled.
Billionaires have been getting richer for decades through tax breaks they don't need. It's US vs THEM. Why is it hard to get ahead nowadays? Hard to afford a home? Hard to afford college? Billionaires.

The victim defending his oppressors.
Pretty low
Oh woe is me. My life is so horrible with my nice apartment, heating, air conditioning, running water, electricity, Internet, big screen TV, being able to order anything I want from Amazon. You know all the things spoiled entitled losers like you take for granted.
Just go back to b!tching about Palestine you masshole loser. That’s all you’re good for. You and Greta.

My God...You leftists are so delusional it borders on mental illness...
Amazon Web Services (worth most of the company's value) is not a product? Same-day delivery, the complex logistics involved in making this happen, is not a product?
That thread is mostly typical Reddit pseudo-intellectual bulls*it. However, I do think it's true that we live in a "golden age of middlemen" and many companies are not providing much real value, are just skimming money.
For simplicity, let's break a company into 2 fractions
I would say Amazon is at least 80% real value, 20% non-value. Something like Ticketmaster is like 3% real value, 97% non-value. Something like Personal Injury Attorneys are 0% real value, 100% non-value (Just moving money between people without any value-add to the economy).
