>"It made it very clear that my goal of making $10k a month from a side project is not a crazy goal to have." Honestly that entire interview just reveals how much of that poor guys thinking is already infected by the virus called capitalism. Accumulating personal wealth shouldn't be the end goal here.

It's a common line of thinking that forcing a greater good onto others will lift them up to your level of moral righteousness. Those on the downward arc of the evolution are learning to deal with the world around them. They can be greedy selfish predators and it's good and appropriate for them. If you stopped predators in the wild from hunting the peaceful animals, you would derail evolution of both kinds. If you somehow ended greed, the vast majority of people would go lethargic as your higher ideals don't resonate with them at all, and you've just taken away their only reason to act. On the other hand, those few who are tired of selfish endeavors are turning to the upward arc of the evolution and to them your ideals of equality might do some good.
