Rich people make the decisions though, and they earned the right to decide how the world economy runs because their ancestors worked hard (owned slaves)!

    I don't know any of the surrounding context but I think about this poem (?) a lot

    "Get off this estate."
    
    "What for?"
    
    "Because it's mine."
    
    "Where did you get it?"
    
    "From my father."
    
    "Where did he get it?"
    
    "From his father."
    
    "And where did he get it?"
    
    "He fought for it."
    
    "Well, I'll fight you for it.
