RE: “I just never understood rich Marxists. Why don’t they just give their money away and leave the rest of us alone?”

They just can’t stop themselves from butting in for the good of everyone (they think).

Here’s a little story from my neighborhood: Far leftist, ‘progressive’ (she says) neighbor got into conversation with me and another neighbor (garden variety Democrat) about our gardening service.

It’s a crew of two guys and owner of business (does not usually pitch in with the work) is a nice ordinary guy who just wants to make ends meet. His employees have been with him for ages and what we long term customers get for our very reasonable monthly fee is typical “mow, edge, cleanup.”

Anything else we want done is on us; not included in price, and we must arrange to have the guys come on the weekend.

The annoying, intrusive ‘progressive’ neighbor opined to me and the other customer that she told this small business owner to charge everyone MORE every month because he charged too little!

Huh??? How is this HER business? She always tries to tell everyone what to do, but this? I was speechless but the other neighbor, garden variety Dem and known to be quite thrifty, said: “If you think you are not paying enough, feel free to add more onto your monthly check, but don’t speak for the rest of the customers.” I managed to shake my head in agreement — loved it —

FWIW, the business owner has NOT to date charged us a higher fee, thank goodness. But this was just one tiny example of the way these leftists operate — they want to do our thinking for us, and insinuate themselves into every aspect of our lives.

The obnoxious one can’t stand me anyway because I have the flag and a Don’t Tread on Me sticker on my car, which she has to look at every time she pulls out of her driveway.
