You’re really laying it on thick here. Low-mid wage employees at these types of companies have to invest most of their income on things like rent, food, transportation, etc just to keep themselves alive so those businesses can profit from their labour. Those expenses contribute to even more tax being collected from their income above what they’ve already paid.
Their at best in the low thousands total dollar value profit margin on their accumulated capital may be slightly higher than the billion dollar total value profit margin dividends paid out to a small number of shareholders who could also have even more money coming from investment in numerous other companies. That much is true, but you’re not explaining why you believe that it’s envy causing someone to suggests it’s still problematic as opposed to simply calling bull#### bull####. |
Because none of it is problematic. So the simplest explanation is probably true: envy causes people to perceive a problem where none exists other than their dissatisfaction.
