I dunno, a disparity in wealth exceeding that of the gilded age does seem like a significant issue.

Immaterial.

There are a great number of studies completing that show that opportunities for upward mobility simply are no longer there for the vast majority.

David Willets summarized and touched on studies done by the Resolution Foundation, and wrote a book on the subject matter extensively, "The Pinch, How the Baby Boomers Stole their children's future".

There's a big difference between living hand to mouth as an individual wage slave, and making enough to be able to support having children, let alone the gross excess of the Zuckerbergs or globalists of the world.

You're only strengthening my argument.

An ambitious man isn't going to care what some "studies" say about how bad and sad and evil the world is. He's just going to do what needs doing and enjoy the fruits of his labors.

You're never going to succeed if you let others' negativity beat you into submission. You're literally in the company of people who create and invest in startups. Who cares what bad things others are saying, it's your life.

There's something to be said about not being blind to the reality of things.
