Wealth creates wealth
noticed this with some of the comedy podcasts I listen to. These people talk about all the free trips, cars, luxury items, and other goods they receive even though they could all afford that stuff already
Its not so much that the rich are getting things for free as much as it is an investment by the person providing the thing. You want to pull wealthy people towards your brand/service so you can then exploit their wealth/influence and the wealth of their friends, or fans in some cases.
The rich get richer, the poor get poorer.
The rich complain about when the poor get anything for free
Like the Queen of England
What you're only now realizing that capitalism is bad?
I suppose you’d prefer everyone be equally miserable under communism.
This also applies to buying stuff. Often you get massive bulk buy specials that only the rich can afford, thereby saving money while the poor can't afford it.
This is actually a real and serious issue.
Money begets money.
Doctor's courtesy. Everyone related to the doc gets free treatment. Other people are turned away.
TIL; everyone in Canada and (insert any country that is not USA) is related to the doctor.
Free to those who can afford it, very expensive to those who can't
