They're pushing wealth distribution now as a problem but can't explain why its a problem. I've asked people ... if the facebook guys become billionaires, that creates wealth inequality, but how does it hurt anyone? And no one can answer.

As long as we have a capitalistic system there will be winners and losers.

Even under socialism or communism, there will be winners and losers ... it'll just be determined based on political pull, favoritism, and corruption instead of the market. The markets actually fairer. It doesn't care who your daddy is or who your friends are.
