    That’s quite the stretch. Don’t regulate the rich cause we might be caught up?

    I don’t take private flights from one side of a city to another. I don’t own a yacht (or 6). I don’t own a fleet of vehicles with a staff that drives them around. I don’t throw away more food than most people eat. I don’t horde dozens of acres of land that contain nothing but wasteful lawn.

    There’s a pretty stark contrast between the ultra wealthy, and the vast majority of people living in highly developed countries.

      When people get in a rage about “the rich”, those kinds of distinctions generally go out the window.
