    The parasite class didn’t get rich by paying people what they’re worth, and I doubt they’re going to start now

      I don’t think you can blame them for this. How many resources do you use without voluntarily paying extra above your legal requirements? Do you donate every time you go to free libraries, museums, parks, cathedrals, etc? I certainly don’t and I don’t think that makes me “the parasite class”.

        Free libraries, museums, parks are paid for by taxes. So yes, you do pay for them. I’ve been in a bunch of cathedrals that charged for entry, yes.
