    imagine: you get a dollar but so does elon musk. what would you do?

    if everybody presses the button, we end up with a massive wealth inequality problem

    and that’s actually how companies operate: the employees work for the company (akin to pressing buttons, just more tedious), and for that they get wages, but the company’s owners also get money that way. repeat the process and the company’s owners end up being massively wealthy, which leads to massive wealth inequality.

      is wealth inequality inherently bad? on a global level it seems to benifit most lemmings/redditors/bird brains?
