OK, but there was more reason to criticize Marie Antoinette, who was using a larger fraction of the countries wealth, and more importantly was using wealth that was actually taken from others by force, not just using wealth that she inherited from family members who received it by offering a service that was in demand.

Of course there are differences.........they lived in different times in very different countries with very different rules of governance. The point that I am making is that Hilton is symbol of decadence and misbehavior as much as Antoinette was.
