To me this falls again into the category of two different worlds where you and I are targets because we produce more than we consume. And that is uncontroversial if there is a net sheet known as the Federal Tax "Liabilities," and our world is driven by equitable thoughts and actions, The Golden Rule, morality, spirituality, whatever word works best in any case in this type of productive world. Our world, where we have less at the start of the day and we have more at the end of the day, on average, over time, while the other world is Might making Right, or Falsehood, Lies, Threats, and Violence, taking and using what is taken to take more. So you can try to figure out from our world what their world is like, but seriously, it is another world. So you can, at best, guess, and you can borrow from other people: “Confessions of a Monopolist” by Frederic Clemson Howe, or “Confessions of an Economic Hit Man” by John Perkins, or “Money Masters.” Whatever, the pieces start fitting into an understandable viewpoint, but how far from your world of productivity is that world of destruction?
