Inequality is like some of the worst developing world countries

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2025/aug/05/progress-by-samuel-miller-mcdonald-review-humanitys-greatest-myth

Inequality is soaring, with the 1% scooping up ever-larger shares of global wealth. These days, the US has a Gini coefficient – the most common international measurement of inequality – on a par with slave-owning Ancient Rome. Maternal mortality rates for American millennials are three times higher than those of their parents’ generation

It's always acceptable to kill a rich person.

They only got rich by killing and exploiting poor people.

Unless they renounce their wealth and give most of it away, kill them.
