I&#x27;m glad Paul Graham is being honest about startups&#x27; role in wealth and income inequality. Ezra Klein says there are good (Silicon Valley) and bad (Wall Street) rich people regarding income and wealth inequality. However if you&#x27;re using the gross measure of income and wealth inequality, rich people all contribute the same way, in proportion to their wealth and income. Paul Graham is correct to focus on finer-grain factors, which are implicit in Ezra Klein&#x27;s good-bad dichotomy but which he misses by going after inequality rather than a concept of justice, whether that justice be just deserts or equity.
