You ain't know shit about Communism
He is presenting an opinion; it's a pretty ignorant one. The vast majority of CEOs or wealthy people are NOT inventors or creators. Inheritance is not some thing that happens *sometimes*. It's pretty funny listening to successful people try & justify wealth gaps.
Even if I worked twice as hard as Lebron James, as a 5’10 guy I could never become as good as him in basketball. Pick any athlete, musician, actor etc. They all possess talent and genetics that were given to them by nature that no matter how hard most people worked would never get close to their level.
And amongst all people with talents you must factor in things as how supportive their families were, how much luck did they have to run across the right mentors, the right support groups and systems that allowed them to get to the top.
You could be 6’8 and have similar genes as Lebron but maybe you were born in a family that gave you no opportunities, maybe your childhood friends lead you down the path of gang violence and substance abuse from a young age, maybe you had to work to support your family? Maybe an injury ended your career prematurely.
There are infinite factors that can drastically affect a person’s success so to say that these people deserve more because of their hard work and dedication is ridiculous. Or what about smarts? Did any if us had a choice being being smart and stupid and we chose stupid? How intelligent your are, even how hard working you are depends on your genetics. Your risk taking ability is also genetic as well as part of your upbringing and education.
Nobody deserves success, the universe is a mixture or RNG and information. All these people who act so proud of all of their achievements are just delusional and coping
Luck, genetics, environment debunk the idea that it’s your “smarts, hard work and dedication” that made you succeed
I think I would anger Josh Barnett because I often criticize capitalism but I also make six figures and I'm a hard worker. Go figure.
