Why does wealth need to be distributed?
An-caps versus An-socs. Go go go.

An-cap: Leave me alone.

An-soc: F-you. Give us your shit. Or we'll shoot you.

Never a productive argument. It always ends the same.

Wealth distribution isn't the problem - the problem is poverty.

Lol.

Perfect encapsulation of the argument. It always ends in threatened violence as a last resort.

The only thing I'd add is:
A-C: freedom will help everyone out of poverty
A-S: F-you.  It is about my envy and my greed for your stuff

"Freedom"? Do you mean today's Bitcoin-market controlled by 47 'cowboys', is any better than the current system ruled by banksters and govs?

"F-you"? As in, I deserve grapes whereas my neighbor gets cumcumber for the same job?
