But we're told Warren Buffet is the good kind.
He is!

There's an Indian parable about a rich man. Every time a beggar asks for money, he gives it, until he has no more to give and is himself a beggar.
You can't give it all up and expect to continue contributing.
The overwhelming majority of contribution in society comes from the working class.
Taking money and then giving it back is the bare fucking minimum a person can do. It's like taking the whole cake and then giving back a thin slice. Hardly commendable.
