I do not begrudge the wealth of anyone.
They may live in 10,000, 20,000 sq.ft. or more homes, drive expensive cars, have expensive toys, etc. All this put people to work, and they continue to put people to work as housekeepers, gardeners, maintenance staff, etc.
If they pay their fair share of property taxes, it helps keep mine down.
There is a story about Commodore Vanderbilt which I like. He had a yacht built, all steel of course, that required a 100 man crew. More like a small ship, than a yacht. Before taking it on its maiden cruise, Vanderbilt had a deck party for 2 or 3 hundred of his closest friends. The press was invited, and a cub reporter got close to Vanderbilt to ask him "Sir, how much did this vessel cost?
Vanderbilt answered "Young man, if I had to worry about that, I could not afford it!"
The reporter countered "Well, I was more concerned that the money might not have been better spent on the poor". To which Vanderbilt said " If you were to divide the cost of this vessel evenly amongst the world's poor, they would still be poor. If you were to divide it equally among 10,000 of the world's poor, they would be wealthy, for a year or two, then they would be poor again!"
Moreover, the men who built that vessel in the shipyards might be poor had they not had the work, the 100 men of the crew might be poor without their jobs, and all the purveyors who provided the vessel with food, liquor, cigars, fuel, etc are better off.
Money is called currency ..... because it is meant to flow.
