    My favorite capitalist propaganda is that a) People won’t work if they have money, but also that b) Billionaires add value to society.

      The problem is that those billionaires know that they have money and that they don’t do any work. They assume the rest of us are equally vapid. And tbf, if I had their money, I would spend at least a few weeks every year in a sunny beach with my feet up. Maybe even for a month or more.
