I think the problem is that like the business culture in the US is so cutthroat and stressful, and people generally so self-centered. That like, they literally can’t imagine a type of life or stress that isn’t solved by muscle through it or work more or whatever.

You also end up in these bubbles where you literally can’t empathize with people because you have no experience to fall back on.

Combine that with a sort of media and religious culture that will tell you you’re right to feel that way.

I’ve hear rich people complain about the fact that rich people are people to, d that poor people don’t appreciate them enough.

And actually, I think this is a common thread these days, that essentially the world’s problems are caused by the fact that rich people don’t have enough power and aren’t trusted enough by society. Marc Andreesen implied this in his Joe Rogan interview.
