Unfairness maybe be natural but billionaires are artificial.
- ninetyninenine 1y agoBillionaires are the definition of unfairness. And therefore they are natural. Only From the perspective of civilization, of course, which is only a small fraction of human existence. From the perspective humanity overall, not only are billionaires unnatural, but civilization in itself is unnatural. Hence all the declining birth rates we see today.
- oporquinho94 1y agoSounds like something you just made up. Kind of moot to argue what is natural and what isn’t. Unfairness or billionaires might be natural or not - that doesn’t mean we have to accept their existence. You know what else is natural? To die at 30 from dysentery or a broken leg. Natural is a nonsense category
- ninetyninenine 1y agoYou’re sort of confused. The person I’m responding to claimed it wasn’t natural. He came up with the category. So take your illogical argument up with him.
- croes 1y agohttps://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/unfairness https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/unfairness No mention of billionaires. Show me one billionaires in nature beside mankind. Billionaires now and then are artificially created by the systems mankind creates. They are an anomaly
- ninetyninenine 1y agoThis is just garbage. Not going to respond further to this.
- croes 1y agoYou could just say you have no arguments
- ninetyninenine 1y agoI do but your citation of the dictionary is fucking obviously not a legit argument so I won’t bother with you.
- croes 1y agoYou came up with the definition part, and dictionaries show definitions. Billionaires are an extreme example of unfairness not the definition. Otherwise most unfair things would be unfair at all compared to the unfairness of billionaires.
- koonsolo 1y agoHistory is full of people with extreme wealth and power. I would say our current political structures are keeping them somewhat under control. Edit: So in that sense, I'm also on the side that billionaires are created naturally. When you already have a lot of wealth, the odds are in your favor to create even more wealth. So if you would just keep the system running without much interference, wealth will naturally accumulate to those who already have a lot. Therefore, we need political structures to keep that under control.
