I've thought about his often, too, but I am of the opinion we can all thrive together or die together. As much as I would love to have 20-million in the bank, live off interest, and have the working class cater to my every need, it's an absurd dream.

I want the bottom of the barrel to lead a dignified life if they're willing to work a full-time job. If the upper, upper-middle, and even middle class have to readjust, then so be it. The working poor need to stop subsidizing others.

It IS a difficult problem, but if the answer from anyone in leadership is others should work full-time and not be able to go to the doctor when needed or buy a crappy condo or worry about food...then those people need to step aside from their positions and allow someone else to at least try (and when I say leadership I'm talking about those that allocate capital and pass laws/policies).

I am a big believer that work for work's sake has no virtue, it is better to die on the side of the road than work for peanuts (it's anti-labor and makes the world worse).
