I don’t necessarily think it’s about taking wealth from the rich to fix our problems. The issue is when the rich were amassing their wealth everyone else was asleep or poorly financially educated. Taking money from the wealthy to give poor people is like giving a poor man fish. It’s better to teach him how to fish. There are still ways to get rich by making sacrifices and learning to work smarter instead of harder.
For example, I moved from my fancier 1 bed room apartment to renting a room in someone’s house and I saved a lot to invest in other stuff. That has been the best decision for me personally.
