There are anti-trust laws. Now those may not be executed to your liking every time but you cannot make everyone happy all the time. Look at how FuboTV was able to stop the biggies like Disney. One very important point I mentioned earlier, life ain’t fair.

Another point, it’s not just rich people who influence the law to favor themselves, it’s anybody in the position of power, including politicians (from both sides of the aisle). Actually laws are most abused by politicians. You are expecting human beings to be perfect. So your expectations are not right, you need to taper it down. People like Bezos and many other found a way to succeed even if there were influential people who had system stacked against people like him at that time. The way to succeed today is by breaking the rules of engagement. Do not fight the rich and influential on their turf, be smart enough to create your own turf. I think we both agree to the actual rebuttal of the original post. Nobody should be made to feel bad for being rich and you cannot ask rich people to distribute their wealth to poor. It’s their choice. Plain and simple.

What I am saying is Capitalism gives you an opportunity to become the ruling class irrespective of your economic conditions when you were born. It is flawed but it’s the best system we have. My grandfather was dirt poor, he worked very hard to put his son thru school, my father was a middle class who worked very hard to give us a good platform, and we worked very hard to take it to a place where money does not matter for us anymore. So, instead of crying river over your problems, just put your head down and work hard then you’ll definitely succeed. You means “anyone”. Everyone is responsible for their own success and failures. Nobody came to feed my grandad when he used to do physical labor for 15-17 hours a day on just one meal! Don’t think I do not know of poverty.

Also, elites will always write the rules, accept this fact. The day you’ll become elite, you may not write the rules but your children or grandchildren will definitely do it. This is what being human means. We are flawed. But we are also capable of good things. Just three words “Risk, Hardwork and Consistency”. That’s all it takes to succeed.

As for Ticketmaster, this is a first world problem man!! This shows how oblivious you’re of the real world problems. Please go to Africa and Asia, and see what poverty means and who cares for companies like Ticketmaster. Nobody gives a damn man. People there are just worried how they’re going to get their next meal, not for some freaking concert ticket prices.
