My analysis is that affluent professionals who make between $150K and $500K are jealous of the hedge-fund and tech billionaires.

Many of them worked like mad to get where they are, only to find that they’re paying 50% of their income in various taxes and have to struggle to keep up. They’re putting in 80 hours a week with a two-hour commute, and they can hardly pay their $5000 a month mortgage.

You can say they’re idiots, and should live on a farm in Tennessee and enjoy life, but that’s not realistic for most.

Apparently, envy sells better than charity when communicating with Democratic voters.

The traumatizing nurturing in childhood that causes libtardism in adults also causes envy and resentment against achievement in libtard adults. But, the nurturing that leads to competency in adults also leads to desire for more freedom, limited government, and a broad ethic of giving and caring and charitable service to others.
