Just incredibly fkked up that some dude can drop $9M on this fake piece of nonsense, and like 60% of the country couldn't come up with $400 tomorrow if they needed it for a major automobile repair. And probably upwards of 70% of people would be in financial ruin if a family member suffered a debilitating illness.

Don't know what to say. This economic disparity don't seen to bother a lot of people. All hail the great gd of capitalism.

Capitalism has worked well for many people for quite awhile. It's the American version of it over the last 40-50 years that is increasingly problematic, in that it's working well for fewer and fewer people. Many countries around the world have happier and healthier citizens due to their version of capitalism. Here in the US we seem to love the contrast of obscene wealth and abject poverty, with everyone in the middle fighting to stay afloat.

Someone having more than you does not hurt you. It might make you jealous and envious, but that would be your problem.

Doesn't bother me. But then again I'm not one for the politics of envy.

Sneer all you want but capitalism a.k.a. a free market is the only economic system consistent with respect for individual liberty. The other variant requires subservience to the dictates of the State.
