    I get the feeling that people who are actually rich have successfully tricked you into blaming the “not poor”.

        I may be misinterpeting but the tone of your comments seems to imply frustration towards the financially secure. If this is true, I am suggesting that your frustration should be directed towards those who are actually wealthy and not those who have enough money to buy a house and solar panels.

          Thanks for the consideration and explanation. I’m definitely not supportive of the ultra wealthy. What I would offer you in return is the idea that perhaps “the rich” aren’t a small clandestine group of the 1%.

          What if they are the homeowners in California with solar panels who prevent low income housing from being developed in their neighborhood because it might impact their property value?

          Certainly Jeff Bezsos sucks, but he and his friends cannot be responsible for all the inequities we see.
