"Do they honestly think they will be multi-millionaires in a few years?"

No, I expect an honest chance to be rewarded for my hard work. I expect the risks I accept to yield positive results in a statistically significant portion.

"myths ...such as that it's a country where a very poor guy can one day be president"

Like your pervert hero Clinton. Maybe that is why Republicans never understood why you hard lefters supported him. Clinton is not real, only a myth to you.

"more and more of this nation's wealth is becoming increasingly concentrated in the hands of the very rich. Its a situation that is of great concern, and like you said, one that will determine this country's economic well being in the future."

Like everything else, this is a pendulum. It swings both ways. We are experiencing more concentration of wealth than some periods of history. It is less than others. We also have a larger percentage of GDP spent on welfare and other "social" spending than at any time in history, including that great mythological President of yours.
