30. It's even more insidious than you describe
I've worked with a few multi-millionaires and the story is always the same. They flat out tell you that if you do their dirty work well enough you will be on path to be one of them. They take you to their mansion, show you the custom pools with waterfall, all the expensive cars they own. They actively go out of their way to make you believe that you will have a really good chance to enjoy that lifestyle as well. They weasel out of all project costs they can and most of the time you end up paying for things (but you tell yourself that it's going to come back to you and much much more). But in the end you get nothing except a kick in the ass to get you out the door. Then they move on to the next fool that they can take advantage of and then toss onto the trash pile.

The rich do not pay their taxes, then when they can't get out of it the hire a high priced lawyer and get a "settlement" with the IRS and end up paying a small percentage only.

That is how 99% of them got to be rich in the first place - by making someone else pay for their stuff and their costs. When it's done out of innocence that is one thing, when it is done time and time again and with malice of forethought then it is theft.

The rich are all thieves. Many of them are murderers. Most of them are felons (they just haven't been caught). These are the people we worship in this society?
