Another term I have a big problem with… “Unearned Income”.

Why do you have a problem with it?

If you basically have property or investments that just bring in money while you sit on your butt, is that exactly the same as someone who is working a 9/5 job and taking everything they make from that job and butting it right back in the economy?

Poor people invest all they have in the economy. They have no choice, everything goes to rent, and food and if they’re lucky, medicine. I’d like for rich people to follow suit a little more.

I’m happy with rich people building business empires

Not happy with them sitting on their money as the country crumbles, it’s actually pretty loathsome
