Here’s a Harvard philosopher who points out many of the same points I did regarding political power:

Here’s an article from the council on foreign relations that talks about how inequality is a drag on the economy and fuels populist authoritarian movements,:

Here’s a Saint Louis Federal Reserve article which doesn’t necessarily prove that wealth inequality is bad, but helps to detail how wealth inequality has grown along the lines of education and generation (so you might need to explain how “the younger generation is more poor than previous generations at their age” is good for the economy): https://www.stlouisfed.org/open-vault/2019/august/wealth-ine...
Let me know when you’ll be dropping your links that say that wealth inequality is totally cool and awesome.
I think you need to stop debating people by attacking their logic and reasoning abilities just because they disagree with you. I mean, one of your points was that 100 million people agree with you that being rich is okay. Well, that’s an opinion that 100 million people hold, right? There are more than 100 million Christian’s and over 100 million Muslims, but they can’t both be right.
>> Correlation isn't causal, by the way - if you show me a study that merely demonstrates correlation without causality (and sole causality, as opposed to multiple factors), then it's invalid.
So, you still have provided exactly zero evidence for your claims.
> Let me know when you’ll be dropping your links from reputable institutions that say that wealth inequality is totally cool and awesome.
This is a strawman fallacy - I never claimed that wealth inequality was "totally cool and awesome". My point is that it's a correlation without a causation, and that wealth inequality is not the causing factor. It's still up to you to provide evidence for your claims.
> I think you need to get over yourself and stop debating people by attacking their logic and reasoning abilities just because they disagree with you.
You need to learn how to actually use logic and reasoning. Almost every single thing that you've said in this entire thread has been emotionally manipulative and fallacious. You're not merely "disagreeing" with me, you're making invalid points to justify something morally dubious - it's entirely reasonable for me to point out those fallacies and that emotional manipulation.
Also, literally the definition of a "debate" is to use logical arguments to argue for a point. You cannot have a "debate" with out logic.
It's also extremely ironic that your last statement is yet another emotional plea, because you can't justify your positions with logic or evidence.
I honestly suggest spending some time to think about why you're unable to justify your positions and beliefs with logic. Usually, that means that they're either purely driven by emotion, or logically inconsistent with each other - neither of which are good for either you, the people around you, or society as a whole.
