Yes, until they realised how silly it was.
Wealth comes from wealth. Intelligence exists as a quality in many forms but can be developed and built upon with education. Education unfortunately comes at a price and barriered access that limits intelligent people.
Very few people become zillionaires from intelligence, hard work, and sacrifice alone. To claim that everyone could do it is to ignore reality, and remain in that comfortable state of delusion.
You really think someone chooses to spend their days cleaning toilets instead of sitting in a nice clean boardroom? Maaaaaate! Yer dreamin'...
The recent Newshub poll suggested 61% want the wealthy to pay more tax, 4% want them to pay less. Kind of reflects this forum too, don't you think?
And we live in a democracy...
