@mylamberfeeties875 it is not a question of jealousy, it is a question of greed. Your reply suggests that the poor are in the minority and confined to the third world. It is very likely, that unless you are in the top 0.1 % of the population who are rich, you are in fact poor. The wealth gap between the super rich few and the rest, is so great that the majority must be considered as poor. Half of the world's wealth is held by the top 1%. If you live in the USA, you are effectively living in a third world country, such is the effective of the greed of the top 1%. Before you attempt to justify such inequalities by saying that the rich deserve such riches because they have worked for it. You should be aware that the financial system has been corrupted by the rich and powerful to stack the system in their favour. Beyond a certain wealth level, financial crimes, just become legal business practice with the banks and cooperations defrauding millions of their pensions, homes, and wage rights. It is standard practice to declare bankruptcy rather than pay redundancy. The same tactic is used to avoid responsibility for the environmental clean up of the mess some industries make.
There is a whole cook book of ways by which the owners of such industries can make money and avoid their responsibilities to the rest of society. The rich set their own remuneration and always ensure they walk away with a profit. It is left to wider society to pick up the tab, that mean you.!
