Focusing on reducing economic inequality is silly. Some people being wealth doesn't mean other people must be poor.

You're full of prejudice. You think someone who isn't on the same page as you politically is privileged lol
Wealth inequality doesn't cause people to die from preventable diseases. Your commie mindset does when they can't afford to have access to wealth, medications, leisure, access to good resources, etc.
