The very rich certainly can. Have you thought about that?
lol...
And how do you suppose they very very rich got that way?
simply put they build/grow super cheap, and sell for high mark up.
Do you think they would be super rich if they sold their products for cost?
If they are no longer super rich, then how would the pay for everyone's living expenses?
Better yet lets say we take the money from the rich and give it to the poor, how long do you think that will last? Let say by some force of magic it lasts for 10 years providing a minimal existence. then what? The rich can no longer make the money they were once able to make because they do not have a slave labor force, and paying people a living wage means the products they grow or make are too expensive for anyone to buy rendering the money they gave out useless.
So what now?
