The rich spending money lavishly isn't a sign that they are getting richer at the expense of anyone else, only a sign that they have the money and desire to spend.

As for the apparently fraudulent activity, that's hardly something I'd support. Its also something that isn't legal. That has very little to do with someone getting rich off of legal investment and risk-taking, or through working hard and having highly desirable skills, or even through inheriting the money.

I'm against fraud, just as I am against confiscatory taxation.
