    It's the lie and delusion of meritocracy. As if people who are rich deserve to be there by merit and equally the people who are poor also deserve to be there because they are inferior. Thus, to help the poor is to give free handouts to the "undeserving lazy good-for-nothings".

    Tax wealth. Villas, mansions and estates should be socially owned and used for the benefit of all.
