Current Events > Why do people hate the rich so much?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Jealousy or sense of being entitled to their money is what I usually see.

---

It's probably a mix of all that shit.

---

I too remember what its like to be bright eyed and bushy tailed and blissfully unaware of the bright red rod of capitalism being shoved up my ass by rich people and their cronies that they call managers.

---

lol they literally control the laws to create an economic system that perpetually oppresses lower class people.

I do think it's that one part sociopathy that doesn't see other people with a right to achieve their own happiness or even have their own stuff. If someone needs it, others should be happy to give to them. If someone "deserves" it, others should give it freely to make things right. If someone doesn't want to do what work needs to be done, they should be cared for regardless. A bunch of attitudes that say they see people as walking wallets.

The other part is we've all worked for someone that is an idiot but got ahead by connections and charisma. It's hard not to be bitter when suffering burnout from your job to see someone whose work you'd have to do for them say you need to work harder to get ahead. While it's understandable, bosses don't have to be "rich" to be idiots and uncaring about their employees.

---

Yeah, we are all just a bunch of lazy, jealous freeloaders hating on success and not because they buy politicians and stack the deck in their favor tremendously while the rest of us has to suffer for it.

---

Its usually just people who have completely failed at life

---

You gotta step on or over people or you'll be the one getting stepped on and over.

---

A majority of rich people got to where they are by screwing the working class over and buying their way into politics and having laws in their favor

Who wouldnt be bitter about a majority of people getting to that level through nepotism?

---

Yes, its totally jealousy and has nothing to do with the rich exploiting the poor for basically all of human history.

These. Not to mention the concentration of wealth in the hands of a fractional minority is objectively bad for the economy.

Too much influence, too much power, too much leeway etc

I hate them because they are bad dancers

---

You either get it or you don't. You're either privileged or you're not.

---

They think the rich "stole" from them. When in reality their broke asses got nothing for them to steal.

---

Hate us cause they anus

What do people gain by making low effort topics like these, that a jr high student could think up in about 30 seconds?

This topic has been talked to death by people way smarter than TC
---

The disillusionment of a limited resources mindset.

---

Then poor people need to learn how to screw people over to get rich.

If not then don't worry about it.

I'm poor because it's my own fault, so I don't make a big deal about it.

Just happy with what I have.
