The poor man and the rich man story is from of old. It is widely believed that the rich man became rich by usurping money from the poor.
In my view, it is not always true. The very rich people I know in this world are what they are through clever innovations and serviceability. The likes of Dangote, Mark Zuchovic, Bill Gates, etc. are so rich because of their innovation, creativity, etc.
There is another category of rich folks who have developed a subtle way of making money by taking advantage of others, especially the poor. For this category, no matter how much they have amassed for themselves, they are yearning for more and would usurp the little that the poor have to live on without feeling any compunction.
They do not have any compunction because that is what they have been doing all along to become rich.
In my country, for instance, partisan politics is one back door people use to get rich quickly. It is all about fighting, bribing, or buying your way into power and once you lay hold of power or a higher office, you usurp and misuse the poor taxpayers’ money.
