In the end it's about a feeling of fairness in society. A certain amount of inequality is probably beneficial as a motivator. But we are getting into territories where wealth is most likely to be acquired by inheritance rather than saving your income, this has to do with the economical and demographical growth rates as well as the typically higher yields already owned capital provides (and secondary the fact that bigger capital stocks tend to have bigger relative yields than smaller ones).

Again, some of this may be desirable, the level of inequality and the fact that this process is not going to slow down soon, means that a growing portion of the population is going to feel that they are treated unfairly.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
