There is no reason that ginormous corporations should have hundreds of billions in profits, pay no income taxes (and in some cases get corporate subsidies) while their workers collect public benefits.
As for working hard, many of the richest elites either don’t work or don’t have to work at all after they inherited billions from Daddy and pay a special LOWER TAX RATE on their investment profits (capital gains) — whatever portion they fail to protect with loopholes, deductions, exemptions and offshore tax havens that were written by the rich, for the rich and enacted by their bought-and-paid for legislative puppets.
The correlation between “hard work” and becoming wealthy is very tenuous. Many front line factory or farm workers work much harder than those in corporate board rooms. If hard work were the sole measure of wealth, the richest people on the planet would be sub-Saharan African women.
