There's Nothing Wrong With Being Wealthy But Nobody Loves A Cheater
Except the Cons and they will keep on protecting liars, cheats, thieves and in some cases, murderers, until their dying day. You can't negotiate with with these people/

1. Actually
with an understanding of what unused money, possessions and power is locked away in the finite, imperfect hands of one person, not releasing it back into the economy is a wrong. Maybe they don't know any better, but what is not of use to a person to do his job and the goods he CAN us, OK even very indulgent stylish ones, is human potential locked away. Locked away, not stored up temporarily to be ordered for even better growth potential.

What you cannot personally use or work with, at least THAT wealth, is an irrational theft from the commons which is the base for all wealth and reward to begin with. The miser. That type of person hoards like any trash hoarded we laugh at on reality TV. Of course those people are rescued- although with difficulty. The miser however, hoards human blood sweat and tears or imaginary pumped up money because the numbers make him feel good. Of course the damage fantasy money does is not confined to being just locked away. It is the miser's final blackmail should anyone with civic sense approach his hoard. Puff! Down goes the economy!

Home hoarders just accumulate trash of no use to anyone and no small threat to their health and checkbook. Wealth hoarders hoard homes only as small showoff excretions of their real treasure chest.

No, no one begrudges the fortunate person who builds empires, is rewarded or over rewarded for his efforts, lives with style, even with a high degree of bloated self-importance, stupidity and waste. It is the dust covered, frozen computer banks of vast human potential constantly bled as if by a mystery into the lock box of capitalized humanity that is monstrous, a threat and insane enough to demand intervention.

5. Not Everyone Will Agree With Me
But I would not turn my nose up at a sackful of cash honestly come by.

Knit away WD :evilgrin:
