Oh, I don't think I'm being targeted by the rhetoric. What I do worry about is anger at the billionaires being redirected at "all rich people" where the bar for "rich" is merely "owns a house". Angry mobs have a way of getting out of hand in spite of any logical arguments why you shouldn't need to worry.

Is it the 401k or the home ownership? Shifting the goal posts is highly suspect that you are in the wrong side of this issue. Those siding with the rich are worthy of the angry mob's wrath, in my opinion.

Accusing me of "shifting the goalposts" is really shitty. I'm not making some grand political argument here, lol, I'm just vaguely musing about my prospects if we have a "cultural revolution" style upheaval here.
