      Read an anthropologist today talking about how in hunter gather tribes survival was difficult so sustenance was always allocated equally, and prestige unequally. If you were the best hunter who took down the beast you got the same cut of meat as everyone else, but more respect.

      I think a lot of what's going on today in wealthy societies is that people are trying to redistribute prestige away from rich people, while pretending to be redistributing sustenance. This mostly just makes everyone hate each other.

      Most people who resent the rich aren't actually struggling for survival, but they feel humiliated. They have to bow down to a boss or submit to government bureaucracies or beg others for money and it's demeaning. It feels unfair.

      In the hateful replies to QC a few people talked about actually struggling to pay for food and shelter but those are the tiny minority. And even these people insisted on their right to call QC an entitled asshole, they weren't promising to respect him if he sent them a check.

      Or look at how people talk about billionaires. Warren Buffett is admired for making his billions, not for giving 99% of them away. Zuck got more good press for wakeboarding with a flag than for donating $100M to schools. And they're both hated by other people regardless.

      When a journalist is writing about how the rich are the cause of everything wrong with the world they're not really expecting a piece of the rich people's wealth since they're not destitute themselves. They're going after a bite of the rich people's prestige.

      The people who are struggling for sustenance are drowned out by those who demand that the rich be humiliated first, and then we'll split the money pile. The rich have little incentive to cooperate with this, the best they can do is hide their wealth so people don't attack them.

          Billionaires need their own Social Support Services I think we should have a wealth tax at .00001% for the portions of fortunes above $1Bn to fund specialized counselors for them, as well as anti-antibillionaire bias training for communists and IRS employees.

          This would probably still be a revenue-positive department.
