Idk I feel like there is an implication here that the people making less in a capitalistic society don’t work as hard. Does that hold up though? Are the big execs at a wealthy company really working harder than teachers, EMTs, construction workers? Some of these people probably work a lot harder than the people in the 1% of a capitalistic society but the 1% are benefiting off their work
Elon is a pretty good example of this. most of his projects have been failures. he really does not do that much work (and what work he seemingly does do is exceptionally regressive). he rewarded for those two things by being one of the richest men alive. but how much do the people who build his rockets or make sure his cars don’t kill pedestrians get paid?
