To the extent we have it now? Hell no, I do agree with you. No one should have billions while there are people working 3 jobs to pay rent. But, to the point that the person building houses deserves the same as a clothing store employee ? Fuck no. If you think they do, your not being real at all. There are levels of value people bring to society. Its always been that way. Its not black and white. Nuance on Lemmy is often disregarded. permalink fedilink source parent
