<<<Or perhaps you think that poor people and middle-class people should have all the things that rich people have...>>>

I have never suggested that, but I have advocated that there be a safety net as far as homelessness, abject poverty, and wealthy nation lowest level health care are concerned. I also advocate that there be a level playing field for every citizen with regard to education and the chance to compete for economic advancement.

Other than that, I just close my eyes to the obscene display of consumption of the super wealthy (Dennis Koslowski and those that are like him but are not in prison) and the unfair advantage of the wealthy to send their lazy children to elite schools and advance unfairly in life (both in terms of economics and in high public office).
