No, it's great to be rich. Funny thing is, this helps the rich.

Here is a fun exercise to think about. Let's say we had 10 people in a country, and 2 made 100,000 a year, and 8 made 10,000 a year. let's say that country then made a law that said "no one should make less then 15,000 a year!", and took 20k each from the rich, and gave 5K each to the poor".

Now you have two people with 80K a year, and 8 people with 15K a year, with 1/3 of there income just given to them.

Now, who do you think that hurts the most? Think about that for a bit. Who losses, and who wins?

The poor guys did pretty well there and the two rich guys got pwned! 

You're going to have to explain why the two rich guys won...
