Rumbaking, although I agree with the majority of your post, I do not think wealth envy was the reason for Anders' original post. This post is more about the inequality of the rising division of wealth. It's true that if you don't like your financial situation, you should work hard to change it. However, sometimes no opportunities are available for the lower class. Heck, just look what happened with Egypt. A college educated student can't find a job, so he had to push a cart of vegetables. I do not see a way out for people like this young man. On the other hand, the rich have the means to get richer. Within the next 20 years, 5 percent of the population will own 95% of the wealth. I pulled those numbers out my arse, but it's close enough.
