If the rich didn't create all that wealth-- who would the liberals take
it from?
It is inaccurate to say the rich "create" wealth. They "accumulate"
wealth


Some like Gates and Bezos do create wealth by
producing what some choose to use or consume.

And they are the minority. Gates is also in the minority in how he
uses his wealth.


I don't know if a lot of Mom & Pop operations would say Bezos is
creating much wealth.
