How does that make you feel? Does it change your opinion of me? What do you think about the acquisition of wealth?
Wealth is a form of freedom. Beyond simply being able to own and posses but being able to not have to commit, not have to live frugaly, not have to budget or restrain. I see nothing wrong morally of philosophicaly with making the attaiment of wealth a life long goal.

in my opinion, the acquisition of inappropriate levels of material wealth is certainly a criminal action against the working class, and is certainly not moral.
If somebody is to attempt to attack and exploit and the working class very agressively, this must be appraised in the appropriate way, the inplicationsof this activity must be judged correctly.
If I make an assumption you are my kind of age - 20's - by the time you are 60, you will most certainly NOT be a multi millionaire, such things will not be existing in a communist state.
If I was in power, even in a capitalistic state, it would definitely be a criminal offence to own more than $3,000,000 in liquid and fixed assets. All private corporatiosn immediately would be siezed by democratic institutions without any compensation - those capitalists who refuse to work may live on the minimum welfare standard to ensure they are protected from absolute poverty, this is all.
