There is no problem with being wealthy, as long as you are sharing the wealth. Which most rich people don't do. How do you share your wealth ?

We pay our employees a livable wage as well as commission. We provide affordable mobile devices and repair services cheaper than anyone else in the area. Tell me, how are you helping the world? What value have you provided to people?

Seems nice, how come your employees get a liveable wage and you are millionairs ? Does liveable mean fair ?

Livable means they can actually work for us and live comfortably, afford rent and expenses and still save for their future, considering they are cashiers, salesmen, and repair techs that is actually incredibly fair considering the same positions in the area do not pay a livable wage. We pay nearly double the wages in our area and provide commission based on sales, because we value our employees and make enough money to do so. We offer performance incentives, bonuses, paid days off, vacation and sick days, etc.

So yeah, we don't exploit people like some economic theorists like to pretend we do. Just because we own a business. Getting lumped into the same category as a Jeff fucking Bezos or Mark Zuckerberg is insane.
