Poor people are not profitable enough to deserve equal treatment. Airline flights aren’t useful to people with starving babies or people whose very existence is illegal. Those people have different desires and other marketing strategies are more effective. And there is the system itself: value exists in transactions, not money. Money is just another commodity. When you have a pile of money, it’s a safe bet there is only one thing you care to do with it: make more. Investments in things you don’t expect to be rising in value are unlikely, but since that pile of money isn’t profitable until you invest it, your choices are limited. All people with piles of money come to the same conclusion: throw it at rich people because that usually seems like the best way to make it get bigger on it’s own. Even if this likelihood even outweighs massive risk, it’s still better than contributing to society because if it works, it will be guaranteed to only take from society instead... which is much easier and somehow still garners social approval. For society which depends on vertical circulation, the result is catastrophic waste. But the goal was to profit, which requires transactions.
