The super rich come in three major groupings:

1) Entertainers
2) Athletes
3) Government and Non-Government operatives who steal tens of millions, or billions of dollars from poor countries.

In addition, some businessmen reach the ranks of the super rich, but the deck is stacked against them, so this group isn't quite as large as you might think.

EDITORIAL: The Nobama Doctrine - Washington TimesApr 27, 2011...
The precedent in Syria is far worse. In February 1982, Hafez al-Assad, father of the current strongman, ruthlessly put down a popular uprising in what became known as the Hama Massacre. Between 10,000 and 40,000 civilians were killed by Syrian troops, arguably the largest Mideast massacre in modern times. Since Assad the elder got away with it, Assad junior may assume he can too.
