Sure, you won't be able to get consensus on what an optimal economy should be. But I think we could agree on a few simple universal requirements like, how about everyone has dignified living conditions -- in terms of shelter, food, health, safety. We actually kind of already agreed on these things in the UN human rights charter. And the current economic model is failing about half of all humans on these points.
Maybe this can help you to see how comments like yours in discussions about examples of extreme displays of wealth inequality might be the ones that actually drive people mad.
