The OP who asked if people hate the rich with no other qualifier for that hate than than wealth.
Diversion burdell. Informedconcent is right.... Who says $$$ has anything to do with worth as a human being? Just look at all the useless $$$ lefty Hollywood celebrities who constantly spew self-righteousness but don't put their own money where their mouths are.

Which begs the question... why does the left have hatred for the investor class, which funds so many things from mortgage loans, to business expansions and therefore more jobs, to small businesses to nurture entrepreneurial growth, to R&D to fund the production of new goods/services, etc., while they have sycophantic adoration of the lefty Hollywood elites who spew socially popular platitudes but don't actually put their money where their mouths are?
I don't hate, it only saps energy from the hater and does nothing to the hated, but I don't believe $$$ in and of itself is a reliable measure of someone's worth as a human being. If I did I'd respect people like Saddam Hussein and Bernie Madoff, I don't.
No one said anything about being a reliable measure of someone's worth. I am bringing attention to what they contribute to society. Some people (the left) are so blinded by their jealousy and hate for other people who are successful and as a result become rich, they can't see that even the basic things they take for granted are a result of their contributions.
- The interest you pay on debt is someone else's income.
- When you buy a product, a portion of that money becomes someone else's income.
- When you pay for a service (ex: internet) a portion of that money becomes someone else's income.
- When you work, you exchange your time for money, they invest their money to produce profit
Since people hate the rich so much they should stop using debt and stop buying their products or services and in a renters case don't rent from them.
Not all people who rent out apartments or houses are rich? You know that right?

It's sad when they think "entertainers" are more important than job providers who pay their wages so they can put food on their table. What do entertainers do other than make them laugh?

Then again, if you minimize you will be better off. The next time you see an advertisement where an actress is crawling all over a man and if you buy the cologne she's advertising and women like her will be crawling all over you, resist. She's making big money convincing you to part with your money.
