1) It's not about fairness - life is not fair. That's never been a problem.
2) It's not about jealousy - it's about power and influence.
Arguing that life isn't fair or that people are just jealous is missing the point entirely.
The issue is concentration of power and influence. How few people do you want to have how much power? Would it be a bad thing if one person had a trillion dollars? Would that person be able to exert too much control over the lives of others (including your own)? What if it was 2 people with 500B each? How much influence and power does 1B buy you?
Try and focus on the actual issue. ;)
