This is what bothers me about today's society. Your response (though more reasonable) like others is predicated on the idea of "it's not your fault" and that's where our economic problems start and end. Success used to be the goal. Now the successful are vilified. They are the enemy. So where do you go from there? No where. You raise taxes until you've drove the economy into the ground an blame the so-called "haves" for causing "have nots" and call it a day. California is a great example of this.

Losers don't want others to be successful. Losers hate success in others because it also shames them. We are creating a nation of selfish, self centered, narcissistic losers who's never going to think "I need to rise up", "I need to do better", "I need to better myself" Those thoughts never enter the narcissistic mind. Only blame does.
