But what I think you fail to realize is that by paying his debts to society the rich guy is benefiting himself as well. And while its hard (impossible?) to quantify I do not think that his benefit would be disproportional to that of anyone else. A strong society is what made him, and what continues to support him. When that society falls, so does he.
I actually want to see society succeed just as much as you do because I understand just like you that from free trade with others we are able to live much much better lives than we would be alone. And free trade is worth more to me when I am living with a bunch of people who are intelligent and who are able to create things of value to me and the rest of the world.
Why does giving his money to other people create a stronger society? Why would giving other people money prevent it from falling?
