GeekSpeak – Do Rich People have a duty to the World? For Saturday July 11th at noon SLT

Do you think that the very rich have an obligation to the world above the obligation of ordinary people?

Should they give a lot of money to charity?  Or start charities themselves?  Or just invest their money wisely?  If the very rich have a duty to the rest of us are they fulfilling that duty by investing in Tesla?  What more should they do?

Should the government strip the very rich of their possessions and re-distribute them?  Or are the very rich an important part of society?

Where do the rich belong?  On a pedestal or the guillotine?

What would you think if you were about to become very rich?  Would you still think the same way?  Let’s discuss the position of the ultrawealthy of our world ! Bring your friends, and your banker :)
