    Why are you obsessed around wealth of other people? You should be more concerned about your own income rather than some super wealthy CEO

      Because my labor creates their super wealth, and because they’re destroying the planet to maintain it.

      Because, as OP points out, wealth disparity is a zero-sum game. Being concerned about the super wealthy is being concerned about our own income.

        wealth disparity is a zero-sum game

        Except it’s not. That wealth isn’t cash in some bank account, in most cases it’s a stock in companies these people built from scratch - Bezos made Amazon, Gates Microsoft, Buffet Berkshire Hathaway and so on

        The wealth of super rich is allocated in places that produce goods and services
