Only insane and unhinged leftists oblivious to how wealth creation works could take the story of the son of a teenage single mother who took the last name of their Cuban immigrant step father that worked at a McDonalds while in high school that would go onto become the wealthiest man in the world by making limitless products more affordable and readily available to nearly anyone on the planet and make it a fucking problem.

My problem is that our current system is just wrong. Our society is like playing monopoly, the one person winning has all the fun, the rest has a miserable time. And the one winning might have some skill and earned the win, but most likely it's luck.

I just like games where skill does matter, where there are winners and losers AND everyone had a great time playing it. I know that sounds Utopian and it probably is, but that doesn't mean we should try to get as close as possible to this ideal. The current system places too much emphasis on individual skill and people having "earned" it.
