interesting philosophy

one of the most interesting bits of 1% philosophy floating around these days is that those who don't make as much money as the rich fail to do so because a) they don't work as hard as the rich do, and/or b) their chosen field is not as valuable to society.

this is like michael jordan claiming that his $70 million dollar salary is not just because he happened to be born with the ability to put rubber balls in wire hoops at a time in history when that particular skill was tremendously overcompensated.

this sign makes this point far more elegantly than we ever could.
