Is wealth in fewer hands better than "spreading the wealth around"?

I think the problem is not with spreading wealth around, but giving wealth away to those who do not deserve it, and creating a cycle that rewards not working and punishes those who do work.

In my opinion wealth should be in the hands of those that work hard for it and those that can create new wealth/resources with what they have.

Is the only exception to this is inheritance?  Because of the sheer amount of money that is handed out, and it makes someone rich, certain individuals who didn't do squat have every right to get more money than they ever would know what to do with, they have every right to get every penny.  Should we also abolish charity, and have it if individuals are not able to find meaningful work, they should be left to die of starvation?

Hunger is a motivation to steal food to eat. Starving to death would be a slow painful way to die. Crime does pay: 3 meals a day and a roof over your head.
