But Stalin lived in luxury did he not?

Do you find a problem with Ellison buying a 75 million dollar house? I do. Capitalism is fine but someone needs to set some arbitrary (as no one would willingly agree) limit on personal wealth. He is obviously not taxed enough by a country that has allowed such obscene riches. Many inherently evil people hide behind by-laws, rules, systems, in order to make excuses for them not wanting to do the right thing. Accumulating riches at the expense of the poor and using distribution systems, corrupt contracts and other means to oppress the poor is pure hypocrisy because supposedly one of the main disputes that Bush had with Saddam is his many palaces and hoarding the countries wealth while ruling with an iron fist. How many people around the world have to die so that big business can profit?
