Str8tEdge Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 ZERO. No. Wealthy people DO NOT determine your labor value. The market does. No. Other people’s success takes absolutely does not in ANY way take away from your ability to be successful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that doesn’t answer the question. You can claim they’re protecting their wealth but our progressive income tax system slants more towards the top in burden then it ever has. 2. You haven’t stated how this specifically keeps your ability to earn down or protect your own wealth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XavierOnassis Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Trump "University" was a clear example of poorer, people being victimized by a rich person: Trump. He had to pay $25 million for getting caught at this. One has to be really stupid to pay for information on getting rich at house flipping. All you need is literacy and a library card. Trump surely has no library card, and his degree of literacy is questionable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are a farmer and some coal company bought the mineral rights to your property that happens all the time. The assumption when the rights were sold that all mining would be subterranean. Mountaintop removal did not exist until much later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
