Totally agree with this.
As things continue to get worse the top 1% are going to have to spend more and more on private security to keep the wolf from the door.
It really is a win win for everyone to share out the vast amount of wealth in society in a more equitable manner.
They never get it though, they don't have many problems (not compatible anyway), but most of the problems they do have to deal with are because they have to rely on so much, from people who get completely abused.
Having run a business and worked in quite a few, if you just pay staff more, and more than others in their trade, then you get so much more back. It's a cracking investment. Actually, end up with much less absenteeism, and easier to schedule works, end up much more efficient. End up with more free time between works to carry out the tasks which would otherwise mount up, and lead to later production issues. I hear loads of construction companies whinge about apprentices being unreliable when they're paying them about £5 an hour. It's the same as shops employing Christmas temps, paying them next to nothing, in the most busy time period, and with zero chance of being kept on after Christmas. What do these "businesses" expect?
There will be tons of rich folk who get their lives turned upside down by train strikes etc. The first-class seat is pointless if the train doesn't run. Private healthcare is all well and good for the guy, his wife and his kid, but it won't help when his parent needs an ambulance, or he gets a problem not covered by private healthcare. He won't get any flu tablets and might struggle to get anti-biotics if everyone is forced to go to work when they're sick, so end up passing illness onto others, completely wrecking the systems and resources. Everyone needs a taxi after a night out (or a tube in London or whatever), and rich people get just as cold as old folk, when there's less drivers willing to put up with the crap, for less pay. He'll be waiting at the bar longer/ for his food too, when there's less staff to serve him. Everyone gets stuck in traffic, and that's more common and longer when construction has recruitment issues, as nobody wants to work their nuts off, labouring, out in the rain and mud for £10 an hour.
