Why do the rich think contributing to the economy makes up for not contributing to the community?

@rgulick@social.coop They believe that "value" is simply what someone would pay for a thing. For them, their wealth is proof of self-worth, and the suggestion that anything else could matter is sentimental nonsense.

@rgulick@social.coop It’s an especially annoying belief considering how they've walled the economy off from everyone who has to work for a living.
