I think what people dislike is those who don't pay their fair share. Nobody I know thinks being rich is a bad thing, just being rich at the expense of others, which is irresponsible and, in my opinion, unAmerican.
Oh please...the "rich" (top 10% of earners) pay over 70% of taxes. Is that NOT a fair share?
How about the 50% that don't pay ANY taxes?

Exactly, which means obama and the dems are the biggest hypocrites alive. They demonize and demagogue the "rich" and then wonder why people are not throwing money at their campaign.
The opportunity is there for ALL...just have to go and grab it, work hard, make smart decision and stay focused.
Working hard for it is more honourable than being the stay at home wife of the one who does work hard and spending all your freetime posting on internet bulletin boards trashing anything liberal.

Having a rich class gives the lazy entitlement types something to hate. They don't seem to realize if they'd get off their lazy butts, they, too, could have something.
The majority of the public can work as hard as they want and they will never be wealthy, in fact the system is designed to make them fail.
Your nonsense notion that hard work brings wealth is very funny. I wonder is nurses work hard, or truckers, or marines or landscapers. No, in your world it seems only criminal bankers and drug addict radio announcers who play golf most of the time are hard workers.
Oh......what will obama and the dems do, now that they see Americans want the rich, strive to BE rich?
Hmm. Bitter and snarky. I wonder why.
