I'll bet neither of you would say that if an unknown relative left you about 20 million dollars in their will.

I've never understood why somebody is jelous of somebody that has paid their dues, or got a great education, or got lucky and got in to the big money.

Hell the guy that invented the ratchet wrench quick release, that worked for Sears, made millions and was just a nobody. Just had a good idea. Lets screw people like him.

We all have a shot at doing the same thing. This is America, the home of the dream!

This is what is wrong with this country. The fact that people want to "punish" the wealthy with taxes simply for being wealthy. Its jealousy, and greed. Simple greed of the less fortunate, not the more fortunate. The idea that if someone is has a lot of wealth must mean that there is less wealth for the rest of us, is absurd and completely untrue.

Bill Whittle has an excellent video on the subject. (ALL his videos are good, if you have the time to watch them..)
