Robert Kiyosaki has a great measure of "wealth". He defines it as the period of time you can exist with all your obligations satisfied without having to do additional work. When that time frame is forever, you have finally achieved a wealthy status.

Most of us work hard to reach that point before retirement when we can no longer do productive work. Unfortunately, some of us will never reach that goal because we are taxed heavily to support people who refuse to lift a finger toward the same objective.

"Giving back to society" isn't a voluntary choice in this country. 50% of every dollar I earn is confiscated by politicians who have decided to "give back to society". Doing good deeds with my earnings and claiming credit for having done so.

Using this definition, is it good for a nation to have a sizable class of permanently wealthy?
