Their actions? You mean like hoarding wealth?

  If you're here, you're richer than 99% of the people on Earth. Enjoy the upcoming class war; it may hold a few surprises for you.

    I'll wager if you asked most people what they think "rich" is, the number they pick would not include the vast majority of people posting here on good ol' orange website. Class war is bad for everyone, yes, but it's a bit silly to generalize and pretend every tech worker is rich just because they pull down high five or low six figures. Doing well, certainly. Not millionaires.

    I don't have a yacht with a smaller yacht inside. I didn't buy a chair at my alma mater. My brother is deep in student loan debt. I skipped college because I couldn't afford to work and go to school. I keep a collection of screws because they're expensive otherwise. I can barely keep the lights on as a software dev. Sure, I eat better than someone from halfway around the world. But likewise we're both being taken advantage of by people of higher social and economic status and deprived of basic needs. We all desire an end to the hierarchy of abuse regardless of where on the totem of who-has-it-worse we are. Now go eat your rice, there are starving kids in Kentucky.

    Am I? The poorest member of the world's richest 1% has wealth starting from around $800,000 to $1 million USD. That's about 20 times my net wealth. This surprise - does it involve another tax cut for the super rich?
