Resources aren't a gun though. Otherwise the Russians wouldn't have overthrown their monarchy with farm equipment. Being rich, in itself, does not really give you direct power over others. You can pay security guards to protect you from the proles, but those security guards aren't loyal to you, they're loyal to money. Ask the Roman emperors how that works out.
The key difference between every other society in history and Americans isn't that the wealthy are uniquely powerful. It's that the proles are uniquely lobotomized. Come a situation where the TV gets shut off and the proles can no longer be pacified the billionaires of today are not any less vulnerable to a guillotine than the billionaires of the last century.

>Earning comes from a place of entitlement. You think you deserve more than you get, but you get exactly what you deserve. Everyone does. For everything. This is some just world fallacy stuff.
You misunderstand me, I'm not suggesting that we should eat the rich because it's the "right" thing to do. I'm suggesting it because it's the mutually beneficial thing to do for the rest of us. It's in OUR interest to exterminate the parasite class. Your wage is not "earned", it is something you receive in exchange for your labor, as an ostensibly equal exchange. To phrase it as being earned implies that it is given to you from a higher power as a reward. And no, you aren't entitled to it, you have to be willing to pull out the pitchforks and fight for it. No one has ever received justice from sitting around doing nothing. The Tesla worker being paid pennies and at risk of his job being replaced by H1B jeets is in that predicament because he is unwilling to fight against it. It isn't some cosmic injustice against him or something that can be rectified by an external power. The only person capable of righting the injustice inflicted upon him is himself, through his own hands, through whatever means he sees necessary.
