Wisdom from the Iron Lady on the immorality of Billionaires

04 Mar 2020

If it is wrong to preach race hatred—and it is—why is it right to preach class hatred? If it’s a crime to incite the public against a man simply because of the colour of his skin—and it is—why is it virtuous to do so just because of his position? The political organisation of hatred is wrong—always and everywhere.

Thus asked Margaret Thatcher in 1978. This should be a rhetorical question, unfortunately its not. It’s a question I’d like Mr. Sanders to answer–the man who calls the very existence of billionaires immoral. No additional commentary needed from me, but I welcome your comments below.
