@75e7cd9e If you're willing to ignore the fact, that these rich people are rich, because of government contracts that are predicated on a condition, that the recipient sends the money back, then we cannot talk. Your analysis literally ends with "big number guy bad".

@1b150101 > If you're willing to ignore the fact, that these rich people are rich, because of government contracts They aren't. Capital attracts capital, as having a larger starting capital enables to perform larger investiments and obtain larger returns than those who have less money. The goverment is but another client in this regard, and like all other consumers, it can be compelled to spend money. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_accumulation > that are predicated on a condition, that the recipient sends the money back You state that, but the fact that that the money flows mostly from the bourgeois to politics, with the bourgeois holding the largest amount of money, says otherwise.

@75e7cd9e Why do you keep separating the two groups? Andrej Babiš Our biggest politician superstar. Property: 75 billion czk Owns companies AGABSY, a.s. and Nadace AGROFERT. And while he was Prime minister, he did send money to his own company. It wasn't his money that allowed him to send nations money to himself, it was his position as politician.
