Why do people even pay attention to this drivel? Who is going to dream up their fancy meals, drive their fancy cars, clean their fancy housing, and manage their financial empire? This just touches the surface. Who's going to educate the middle class they depend on for execution, protect their property and legal rights? The rich have more to gain through society, law, and government than any other class.

"Some would argue this is a vast overstatement." - always nice when a link-bait-esque article has the counterpoint built right in.

Atlas is shrugging.<p>EDIT: I meant this only as a connection to the work of literature not at all indicating that the Mega-Wealthy Class actually makes the world go round and is "a good thing"(tm)
