I totally agree with you.
One thing worth mentioning is the Bill & Melinda Gates foundation, where Buffet as well as Gates gave a large portion of their income.
Whoa Bill Gates donates 80 million USD per year?

No Pay Bill Haha:
Generally, the richest find ways out of the taxes. They find loopholes. They donate money charities, organizations, etc, that end up donating that money to other places which then donate to other places until it comes back to them.
Demon Bill Gates
When they do donate, like Bill Gates for example, they donate to causes that are dedicated to reducing the population of all the people on the planet to less than 500 million people globally by 2030, that is in about ten years from, from 2019 or what is almost 2020.
Agenda 2030 &Other Things
The list goes on.
Poor Pay Taxes
Many times, and for the most part, poorer people end up being required to pay taxes. Also, smaller employers end up getting punished for being successful when they are paying over 70% in taxes or more plus personal taxes on top of that in some cases.
Sued
And then people are suing them all the time.
Outsourced
And then they have the competition from the imports, the products being shipped in from China, etc.
Downsizing
So, many times, employers end up laying off employees. Many times, employers pay their staff less money.
Crony Capitalism
The ultra rich are not rich because of free markets. That is a lie. If you knew history, you would know all about people like Rothschild, Soros, Ford, Morgan, Rockefeller, etc. You would see the real problems. Taxes are bad. People like Rothschild married governments, etc. That is called like collusion, treason, espionage, corruption, etc. Many different things.
That's exactly right @joeyarnoldvn. They are rich because of your belief in that free market. Why do you think the ultra rich do everything they can to make you believe it IS the free market that made them ultra rich? C'mon Joey, you're smarter than that, connect some dots for yourself.
You do not believe in free markets? So, what do you believe in? What is an alternative to free markets?
You're still asking the wrong questions, so I'll repeat: why do you think the ultra rich do everything they can to make you believe it IS the free market that made them ultra rich? And why do you believe them?
The free market has been around for thousands of years. It is like gravity. You don't have to believe in falling to fall. If I fall off my chair, it has nothing to do with belief. Things happen. We fall. We all know this. Money can have value. Not always. But it can. Does not have to but it can at times. Time has value. Resources has value. Love is very valuable. Like priceless. Friendships is valuable. Different things have value. The free market is all about exchanges. A relationship is a trade between two people for example. I like interacting with people. I love life. I love people.
You are ultra rich compared to me. So, give me my fair share, right now. You have to give me my fair share. Because your REP is too high. Too high. You have too much. I have too little. You know that you have too much.
Yes, I do have too much. But that's not my fault, it's yours going by your beliefs. So don't beg, that's against your own beliefs.
I am not against begging. I am ok with begging. Do you have a problem with begging? What is wrong with begging? You are against the first amendment? Begging is simply speech. It is just talking. There is no threat to lips vibrating. I am not threatened when I see vocal cords stringing. I am not scared when sound waves are flowing from carbon vessels of life. I wonder if you feel threatened by free speech or not. I don't care what people say and do to the extent it does not interfere with my stuff. Oh, wait, what? I have no stuff? I do not even own myself?
Whoa quick maths. 1% of 7 billion people in the world is 70 million people. Conservative calculation of each having met worth of 2 million USD each that's 140 trillion USD net worth. So 0.8% of that is 1.12 trillion USD to charity each year...

It's only those that have no wealth who complain. And more often than not they do so because of their ineptitude to drag themselves out of the hole they put themselves in the first place.
