If the peasants think it so horrible to be wealthy, why do they line up by the thousands to win the lottery?

A bigger question is, if WE peasants think it is horrible to be rich, then why do WE keep voting into office people who are rich? What percentage of Congress are millionaires? The data indicates it is around 47%. The liberal ideology, thus, should suggest that WE the peasants would not want to be ruled by those who WE see as being the enemy.

In the past, Democrats went to Congress then became milionaires.

Republicans became millionaires, then ran for Congress.

I've never had a problem with the rich.
