This is the logical implication of the meritocratic ideology. If rich people deserve to be rich because of their merit, then by logic poor people deserve to be poor because of the opposite.
To understand what is wrong with meritocracy, I could give you a 10000 character post here (already done that) but I prefer to give you what you will find in the Leftist library on the subject:
--
SOCIOLOGY IS CLEAR - MERITOCRACY IS A MYTH:
- [VIDEO] - Understanding the notions of capitals and the myth of meritocracy - IMPORTANT
- [VIDEO] - The American dream ? Its meritocracy - A con to control you
- [VIDEO] - Why meritocracy can't exist
--
No, I'm against Meritocracy for two reason:
- My belief in said concept partially ruined my life
- This vision of the world in anti-scientific, anti-realist, idealist, not rational and completely dangerous for the world

Aren't you looking at it only from an economical perspective though ?
And if you do it, it obviously can't be applied to every rich person, like assume you're Elon musk's son, well GG you're now the richest man alive ( after Elon dies ofc, and unless daddy pulls off some prank on you something and donates all of his money after he dies )
This category of rich people ( which it's probably the majority of rich people ? lol ) don't enter in the meritocracy category they just got lucky being born in the right family and that's about it.
But when it comes to offering some sort of service don't you think it's unfair / unethical to give people positions they can't fullfil ? Sure somebody is inevitably gonna be left out but he can sure benefit from a system that works governed by people who have proved they have the skill to run such system ( I mean if you're not jobless somebody hired you because you showed your skill was superior to all the other candidates and you offer the better service )
Poor people are poor because of other reasons not because of meritocracy

Stop your fantasies of wanting to restructure other cultures. Don't the left stand for diversity and mutual respect?
I understood that you want to infiltrate and restructure foreign cultures until they match your values.
This guy refuses to read posts properly and then gaslights people because he doesn't want to have an honest conversation. @Sentinel i'm putting you on ignore now. I don't remember having a single normal conversation with you where you don't lash out immediately and resort to name calling. You seem to have a problem with me personally. Talk to the wall for all I care&have a nice day.
See he didn't even understand what I said but instantly junks to l conclusions based on his own biases.

Exclusive: Secret Service ramped up security after receiving intel of Iranian plot to assassinate Trump; no known connection to shooting
Warnings about that operational planning have coincided with a noticeable surge of online messaging from Iranian accounts and state-backed media mentioning Trump, which has raised security concerns among US officials, one of the sources told CNN
Sure why not..

JD Vance just yesterday one day later we get this threat from Iran.
Sure why not
