You're hilarious. There are no societies that have ever existed without an unbalanced distribution of power. That's how societies get created to begin with.

And secondly, no, being well off does not cause the desire to do harm any more than owning a weapon causes the desire to do harm. Your ideas are outright childish at best, leftist at worst.

I'm oscillating on whether or not you're being willfully obtuse or are genuinely stupid.

The only rule is power. Letting a group develop a point where it is no longer costly for them to harm society at large has without exception ended in that civilizations collapse.

Without exception.

I'm leaning towards stupid, since you're unable to understand fine distinctions.

The only rule is power

Firstly, that is an explicitly Marxist idea.

Secondly, it's also wrong. Power in and of itself is harmless. Once again, the example is a weapon. A weapon harms no one without a decision being made by a person to do so. Money cannot bribe without the decisions of humans.

Nor is the accumulation of power the problem either. Any amount of power in the hands of the wicked is harmful. A kitchen knife used to rob, a handful of money to look the other way, a moderator position on a small website used to censor the users.

You are incorrectly ascribing means as the problem rather than motive. The first murder was committed with the nearest rock available to hand. The problem is people.

But you won't actually read it. You'll just go waah muh corporate taxes or whatever scree you have wound up.

It's actually a biblical one. But again. You're illiterate.
