    Predictably idiotic headline. A few hours ago, before coming across this post, I visualized just such a stupid headline and chuckled to myself for thinking of such low-hanging fruit. And here it is.

    A meaningless figure, mindlessly arrived at with the same abstract mathematical tools that could and should be also mentioning how much money is lost by keeping so many people poor and with hurdles, by NOT investing in education, on public health, on the environment…
    But we never read these assholes talking about this in this manner, now do we?

      Well, no, because them suffering is worth it and if they had more everyone else might want more and the rich might have more but it would be a smaller slice, a smaller %, so obviously that’s bad.

      Wow its like you have no conscience. Think of the children, their emaciated little bodies, and how exploitable they are! Don’t you see!?
