I really don't mind the principle of somebody owning a lot of stuff, but it should only be allowed after everybody else has at least a home and a decent life. The fact that everybody theoretically has a "chance" isn't enough. Go ahead and indulge your quest for endless acquisition all you want, just not when it makes survival harder for the rest of us.
This! I aggre 100% with this.
Like yes, I agree that different jobs requiers different salaries depending on how important they are for the people and how hard it is to not work on your free time. Like, cafes are very nice but we NEED hospitals. An blue collar worker rarely thinks about their job at the end of the day while a manager or higher often do.
