    Because people who get this rich do it by exploiting the poor. They aren’t going to turn around and be nice. People who get this rich start as absolute shit bags. They remain the same after.

      … that doesn’t answer the question they asked.

      Did you literally not even manage to read a whole one paragraph comment before responding?

      My brother in Christ he’s a fucking YouTuber. If you don’t want to be in a video, say no. 🤷

      Of course for all this screeching about exploitation I’d happily put down $50 that says you wouldn’t turn down a free car because you “don’t want to be exploited.”

      Go tell the people in the 21 counties of NC his food pantry travels to that they’re being exploited and see what they think of your hot take. Or are you one of those “feeding people robs them of their bootstraps” types?
