This is the worst argument. How does rich people having money help everyone? Wouldn't that same money, in the hands of MORE people, do MORE good? The answer is, of course, YES! It would better for businesses by creating more opportunites for expansion, for individuals who can support themselves and their families and work harder(as they feel more rewarded for their efforts!), for entrepreneurs and inventors and creators!
Income inequality benefits nobody but those at very top. And even that is limited, because sooner or later the economic foundation that they have been systematically weakening is going to fail and it's all going to come crashing down. Those at the top only have the furthest to fall.
