I have plenty of wealthy friends whose parents were blue collar, very middle class. They EARNED their wealth by excelling at what they were good at. In fact, if you associated with anyone from "old money", you would find many of them have cut their children out of their wills altogether and end up donating their estate to charity.
I'd love to hear their stories. Remember, no man is an island and no success story is a one man play.
No awareness of reality, how life is for others, etc. Just petty (often erroneous) assumptions, nastiness and hate. But it is the poor and middle class that are terrible class warmongers. GMAFB
Are you not guilty of making assumptions about the wealthy? For instance your statement that they were born to wealth, while many are self-made.

If this is the case I understand that you would be jealous that no one came to guide you to your riches. Of anyone would see a mile away that you would want them to do it all for you.

I'm obviously not going to name names but I'll give you two examples of lads who grew up on the same block in very similar, modest cape cod homes. Both attended public HS and SUNYs. One went on to become an actuary for a top company, the other became a world famous guitarist. The actuary's sister became a successful Hollywood producer.
Then you must be lacking a soul if you have no guilt when your very existence depends on a stranger going to work. Taking money off others to feed your face. People who live off the work of total strangers and have no guilt are called low lifes.
You probably benefit from wealthy peoples' tax dollars yourself. Who do you think funds a lot of your deductions, infrastructure, and services you use (or will use on the future)?
The costs and benefits are not split by party line. Many of the states with the greatest benefit from federal dollars are "red" states, not just "blue."

Nothing like Liberal greed and jealousy
More erroneous assumptions based on nothing but conjecture.
