Why does anyone else's hard work, and saving entitle you to take it from them for your own lifestyle? My mom worked 3 jobs to put herself through college. I alternated working a semester and going to school a semester to put myself through college. I don't owe you a damn thing. You could have done the very same thing to benefit yourself. In fact, why don't you get off your homer simpson fat donut and start?
This is the conflict at the core of our tax system. Dolts like ChuckFinn all rich people just fell into their money.
Understand this: For someone to get to the top of a Fortune 500 company, he/she had to pass muster at several key spots along the way. They just don't luck out to get to the top. You can't even sleep your way to the top. It is an absolutely vicious dog kill dog path, littered with others who failed and were killed and eaten by the system.
