Be careful when advocating force towards others. Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, after all.
- holtkam2 1y agoThey may not have been alluding to violence; perhaps something like democracy itself would be enough to take that lifestyle away from the middle class. If billionaires consolidate enough power & resources and push the tax burden onto the middle class which makes yearly vacations unaffordable
- generalizations 1y agoPerhaps they were referring to economic force. But 'it will have to be taken' isn't a passive statement either way.
- lukev 1y agoAh yes. George Washington, Simon Bolivar, Vladmir Lenin, etc... famously incompetent.
- generalizations 1y agoIncompetence can take many forms. Some of them include starting a fight they can't finish.
- lukev 1y agoI chose those examples specifically because they were completely successful.
- generalizations 1y agoThose were; many were not. Someone who takes issue with the middle class of the USA might not be.
