Yes, and too many of those resources are getting into the hands of the rich at the expense of the poor.

Why I can't say that never happens, for the most part that isn't true. Her ancestors created that wealth. They didn't steal it from the poor.


How can you know that? Have you done a search on the Hiltons? Most of the current wealthy had their wealth made on the backs of the poor. You do understand that they were called robber barons not because they were good and honest.

Paris Hilton is not entitled to be a millionaire many times over just because she was born into the right family.

Her family have the legal right to do with their money whatever they want as long as it isn't against the law. They have the natural right to do whatever they want with the money as long as it doesn't violate anyone else's rights. Giving your money to your children or grandchildren doesn't violate anyone's rights.


Yes, and I want the playing field leveled more in that area. There is no reason Paris Hilton should be able to flaunt her enormous wealth because her great grand pappy was industrious.
