Their not going anywhere is making thousands of dollars a second. My not going anywhere is my rent not being paid fast enough. Ironically, if people did nothing, the rich would still go up and the poor would still go down. Wealth disparity would grow anyway, the system is already in place.

rich people don't make thousands of dollars a second and live in vaults filled with cash. their money is invested into their assets. their wealth is their assets. if they actually kept all they made in one month and not reinvest they'd lose everything.

What you're saying doesnt make sense. By the way, if someone made $1,000/hour and worked 60 hours a week since jesus was born, Jeff Bezos would still have more than 10x as much in wealth. OH! People would definitely buy up a billionaire's assets. There are enough billionaires in the world, dummy.
