We can decide the point collectively. After you have enough to live a comfortable, fulfilling life, you don't need more money.

- suttontom 6mo agoI agree we can/should decide collectively. But when the vast majority of Americans have a place to live, air conditioning and heat, a refrigerator, enough to eat, etc. it's hard not to say that they're comfortable. As for fulfilling, that's describing a utopia. I recognize there are still people who are food insecure, and I think it's an abomination how people are suffering (many poor rural black people in the south don't even have access to basic plumbing and end up with diseases like hookworm), but making wealthy people into a boogeyman just seems like an emotional argument so much of the time.
- ponector 6mo agoA person does not need to own a house to live a comfortable fulfilling life. 400 sq. ft studio apartment is enough for a single person. If there is no public transportation available, an old Toyota Yaris is also enough to have a comfortable commute.
