All rich people are evil, it's obvious. If you end up with a lot of money and you're somehow not evil, you'll give it away instead of becoming rich.
I don't believe you. I believe you're earnest, I just also believe you're wrong. If you grew up in a modern industrialized nation with luxuries like plumbing, sub millimeter precision engineering, electricity, internet - are you suggesting we tear those things down because others don't have access to them? 'Cause if no, I have news for ya, buddy - by the standards of history, you're exceedingly rich. You wouldn't understand though because all rich people are evil, obviously. ๐
There's a difference to having plumbing and having useless shit like holiday houses, private swimming pools, luxury cars, gold tat etc. And a multi-millionaire like Gabe Newell can even buy all of that and still have a lot of spare money to pay off anyone for any reason. Why would any single person be entitled to that?
