    It’s not reasoning, or an argument for or against, it is just a statement. I’d admit that it’s probably a tautology.

    What the post described is a taxation and societal problem, not a problem with investing or compound interest in general.

    I’d easily agree that society is unfair, and that our taxation policies are directly antagonistic to the middle class, but again, this is simply math (and though it is theoretical, microeconomics).
