re: Why Do People Hate "The Rich" So Much?

I think people don't like the mega rich. I would assume it is because of what they perceive they pay in taxes (some actually don't pay much, but they know how to work the system). Also, I think there is a thought that most billionaires have had to do something unethical at some point to get that much money, which they would do if they had the opportunity..
And many people think that money will solve all of their problems. They don't have it and the rich does.

The vast, vast majority likely don’t give one shite about taxes.
It is almost entirely a “they have it, I want it” mentality, ISO.
The mega wealthy can escape almost all aspects of society that we hate. They have the option to leave the workforce if they choose.
The worries of the common folk don’t apply to them.
Many people see that as unfair.

This is the correct answer.
The rich people that make all the rules but it never applies to them.
The ones who run this country or the world for that matter. The Spoon fed spoiled brats that never had to actually make it own there own bc everything was handed to them bc of who they are or who they know.
They get in trouble or do things that if a normal everyday citizen did woukd rott in jail.
I don't believe it's the Rich people that the OP is referring to.
Why would anyone hate a hard working or educated human being that was smart with investing or saving or just had great ideas and made a fortune.
I have a buddy in la. That is a great guy. Graduated from Lsu and started building houses. Good contractor and started a diffrent business also related to construction. He just sold his business for 825 million a couple years ago.
That was made off of sheer hard work and determination.

I think it is pretty hard to ethically build a billion dollars.
