The original OP was on income inequality rising to thrid world levels. It immediately got turned in to I hate people who hate wealthy people (although I ddin't see a post about that). Now it's off on several tangents. About the only thing that hasn't been discussed is income inequality.

When people aren't working the same job and producing the same, you can't compare salaries.

That in the OP probably got people riled up. Income inequality isn't a good thing, however getting upset at someone whose parents left them a lot of money is dumb and isn't the american way IMO.
Income inequality needs to be fixed, but bringing down the top instead of working for everyone to have similar access and opportunity (thinking education again) only imposes a ceiling on everyone in the long run.
