"A banker, a social welfare recipient and an asylum seeker are sitting at a table. There are 12 cookies in front of them. The banker takes 11 cookies and says to the social welfare recipient: “Watch out, the refugee wants your cookie.”
I'm not religious, but I'm a curious person. I stumbled on this Re: The Sermon on the Mount.
"And.. the Aramaic word for blessed is “congratulations.” Jesus is actually saying hey, poor people, Hey, hungry people. Hey, sick people, you who are being persecuted, congratulations! And why is he congratulating them? Because he's saying, this kingdom that's coming about, that I'm going to help build? In that kingdom, you're going to be first, you're going to be the most important. And then he says to the rich and the powerful. Woe, are you. ‘Woe’ meant warning. ‘I'm warning you, those of you who are full now, those of you who are laughing now, those of you who are rich now, Woe are you, because in the kingdom that's coming, you're going to be last, you're going to be pulled down from your thrones.
So you can see my friends why these words, why these Beatitudes were so daring and dangerous for Jesus to speak, and why he had to be silenced for saying them."

What bible are these greedy, perverse oligarchs (and their minions) referring to?
Matthew 19:24
"And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."
I guess they've just decided to unite to do their best to make the lives of the majority HELL on earth.
