Your daily reminder there are no ethical billionaires and tremendous wealth is not a sign of tremendous intellect.
It is, however, often a sign that something is deeply wrong with that person. Hoarding resources while millions go hungry is abnormal.

It’s not a moral failing.
People blame the disabled because it makes them feel morally superior.
They can tell themselves it’ll never happen to them.

Philanthropy is a scam. It's crusty rich men who made their wealth exploiting us (or their granddaddy did) saying, "Do a little dance, poor person, and I'll throw you some pennies. But you have to spend them exactly how I say, in a way that protects my wealth and flatters my ego."

A study using government data finds that if all businesses became 30% employee-owned, the bottom 90% would experience significant gains in wealth, with much of the benefits going to marginalized groups.
