Most people in the upper-middle class to lower rich as fuuuuuc class worked their asses off for that money



Two things: those people aren't really "the 1%" that people talk about, and there are a shitload of hard working people who are dirt poor. I think the "well they work so hard" argument is ignorant of economic realities and entirely self-serving (basically you're saying that people are successful because of some virtue they possess, therefore suggesting that those who aren't successful are simply not as virtuous).

a smart worker is more valuable than a hard worker.

But I don't think it is fair that some people are born with the advantage of having more intelligence than others.
