It's not wealth envy.
It's poverty antipathy.
Be wealthy! Yay! But your country, your economy, your society, your future and mine will be better in every way if we're successful in reducing the ranks of the "less fortunate", as UT so delicately puts it.
Is the wealth redistribution from 2007 to 2009 illustrated in UT's chart an example of a failed wealth plan? Is the wealth redistribution from 1986 to 2007 an example of a failed plan?
Wealth redistribution... It's reviled as "wealth redistribution" when a person's relative share goes down; it's hailed as "upward mobility" when a person's relative share goes up. More hypocrisy.
