How exactly does not buying a yacht help you pay your rent?
What about the company and all the employees in that company that built said yacht and sold it to him? What about the sailors employed to man that yacht? What about the dockworkers that maintain the yacht while it's not at see?

He made PC games more affordable for people around the world. What about these people? Again, how does Steam not existing (and therefore affordable PC games) suddenly make your rent cheaper? How are these related?

No, the things I care about are mostly pillaged and destroyed by the state or minorities (that the state allowed in, that they even import). Gabe did me no harm, on the contrary. He made PC games cheap, affordable and easy to discover for me. His business greatly benefited my life. So, good for him. He can have all the yachts he wants.

Rich people should be getting taxed 90% or more past a certain level of income, like they did in the 50s.
That encourages them to instead put that money into their employees salaries, and expand, and hire more people.

The entire reason people can't afford food is because all the money is concentrated into the mentally ill money hoarders.

Only a little related, but seriously commies and socialists need to stop fussing when rich people buy expensive shit.
You WANT them to spend their money on shit. Good shit, bad shit, overpriced shit, a million cars, 9999 houses, a giant feast covered in gold, etc.
They spend their money and it flows outward from them, boosting economies and feeding the middle class, who feed the lower class. People get paid, who pay other people, who pay other people.

There's really only a couple scenarios where shit's gone bad:
>spending all their money only exclusively on rich people shit at rich people places and wont even go to a McDonalds or a Walmart because it's "beneath them", so none of their money drips to the middle class at all
>hoarding all their money and not spending a dime, just letting it collect interest as their stock portfolios go up
>using their money to force other people to change, like bribing some politicians to let them cut bathroom breaks for their employees
>embezzling money that isn't technically theirs

>>729144716
It's not hard to defend GabeN here, he's got a family discount (the yacht company's owned by his brother? Dad?) and Valve/Steam isn't greedy enough to be an issue.
Plus that whole thing I mentioned above about spreading the money and juicing the economy up a bit.

Also shut the fuck up EGS marketer.

No, that encourages them to leave. Which they are very good at.
No country has ever benefited from greatly increasing the taxes on rich people. That is not a pragmatic advice. It doesn't help anyone.
>The entire reason people can't afford food
People can't afford food in socialist, autocratic and collectivist hellholes. People are starving due to war and horribly inefficient mismanagement of resources thanks to incompetent and corrupt states. You are a spoiled little faggot.
You also show an infantile understanding of what makes rich people rich. They don't just hoard money (and refuse to give you money that you somehow are entitled to, for whatever reason). They are rich because they have assets, estates, property, stocks, shares and bonds. A lot of this flows back into the economy. Companies use the money get from people buying stocks to invest and expand.

I'm not a fan of fiat money either. Inflation and the Cantillion effect are bad things, that I agree with.
But that doesn't change what I said.
No country ever benefited from greatly increasing the taxes on the rich. Not one poor person was helped in the long run by throwing out poor people. There is no empiric evidence that shows that taxing the rich to hell and back helps anyone.
You are brown and a socialist.

I am a German and you have no idea what you are talking about.
Socialism doesn't work, and it's not even a good idea. It leads to starvation, war, death, oppression, slavery. It's the natural outcome of how it needs to tell people what to do. And how any planned economy struggles with the absolute mass of information needed to structure that economy. And the (lack of) incentives, and throwing out the mechanisms of pricing, the inevitable mismanagement.
Don't dream of getting free shit. Read about the real socialism that was actually enforced on people in actual countries. They suffered.

>>729147332
Narrative driven by people that to live off the wealth created by other people, or want to.
Entrepreneurs that provide goods and services to the masses and get rich are evil. People that work closely with the government, live off taxpayer money, don't produce anything but tell others what and how to produce, those are good. Since the people making the narrative can see themselves in the position of telling others what to do. They cannot see themselves in the position of someone that just provides goods and services and earn money that way.

See how many times in fiction a company is evil. When what that company does, in reality, is often done by states or a corrupt corporate mix of the state and bad companies (like the military industrial complex).

The only reason why Valve won is because most of the other video game companies wrote off PC gaming years ago while Valve filled the gap. The only other major company who didn't abandon PC gaming at the time was Blizzard. Every other fuck either didn't release their game at all or they did a dogshit job porting it over. Steam, Battle.net, and GoG are the only launchers I don't mind using. Everything else is just some dumbfuck who missed the opportunity and think they can do what the cocksucking TV/Movie companies did with, except the elusive backbone of video game consumers decided to show itself in this rare instance and put most of these subpar storefronts in their place.
>>
I don't like when other people are more successful than me and I will frame their successes as exploitation and their gains as morally reprehensible and myself as a champion of justice for trying to tear them down for having more than I do. If and when I succeed I will immediately start calling out everyone else who does this (which is everyone, morals are a fucking meme)
