    Depends on what you mean by state support.

    Cause a theoretical ancap hellscape would still have billionaires despite being stateless by definition.

    You need power and control to get that rich. The only way that happens today is by the state, but that doesn’t preclude other forms of violence and power.

        100% totally in agreement

        Your previous statement was just more broadly applied than our existing capitalist system and I find the distinctions interesting to discuss, as it helps identify the root.

        Walmart couldn’t exist without exploiting the poor. Even though they could pay their workers enough to live, the majority of them are on food stamps: which is just the govt subsidizing exploitation.
