Feed The Rich: A Pauper's Manifesto
I have found that my attempts in helping others were thwarted by my own ignorance concerning our current socioeconomic system which fundamentally denies the intrinsic human value both of the mega-rich, and the paupers.
Careful study of the natural laws of our universe and a cursory glance at the divine have lead me to a resounding conclusion. You are all wrong. But, as is written in the Book of Enoch, which your pastors decided wasn't worth keeping in your Bibles, despite Christ Himself referencing it (almost certainly because it would destroy their enslavement of you), I can lay no blame on you for that. Indeed, we are to ascribe all sin to Azazel, and so I will not hold your ignorance, malice, or stupidity against you. I will talk like an asshole though, it's kinda fun to be all "wooo look at me, I had the same epiphany every 30-something year old had"
The crux of the issue is a lack of charity, and it goes to all people. The rich exploit the poor and the poor hate the rich for their lack of morals, and the rich hate the poor for being lazy, envious bastards. Operating within this system, the only logical conclusion is to make as much money as you can before your competitor slits your throat, otherwise you'll just be another pauper.
I don't know anyone who doesn't want to help others, but helping others comes with a price in our current system. So, it's been made clear to me of the necessity for a subversion of the easily exploitable socioeconomic system in which we live in order to improve everyone's quality of life. You cannot afford to be charitable unless someone else is being charitable to you. For that reason, I develop tools, software, and technologies that help entrepreneurs and small businesses exploit their niche with the expectation that those entrepreneurs will remain charitable to their fellow man.
Counting the cost, it has been incredibly expensive and costly every step of the way. Entrepreneurship is difficult to begin with, but giving away your products for free and making a profit is even harder, as the old proverb goes, "A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit".
Now, Christ inspired me to choose this path, and it's my belief that by following Him I may inspire one or two more, and they too may inspire more so that actual change happens.
