      It wasn’t anything special. Just someone saying they didn’t understand why people share wealth inequality statistics when the real problem is income inequality, and that wealth is just income - debt. They gave some examples of Dave the Renter who may earn a high income but spends it all on “slop” and therefore has 0 wealth, and a Laotian farmer who by nature of owning their farm is wealthy but doesn’t purchase much.

      I almost downvoted it and left but I’m trying to unlearn bad habits from a previous website and give people the benefit of being open to disagreeing comments.
