It comes down to the belief in free association. If one believes that we have that right, then people exercising that right is a good thing. If one does not believe in free association, they won’t.
Personally I’m fine with enclaves of uber wealthy because I believe that is how it should work. If I want to live there, I should become able to afford it and not force others to accommodate my economic situation.
At certain times in my life I traveled through those circles. I vastly prefer being around mountain hick rednecks with beer and chewing tobacco. Not because I don’t appreciate fine things. I do. But I find those of lesser means and material goods to be a better class of people overall.
Don’t disagree.
Oddly enough, I’ve met and spent some time with two different guys who were at the time in the top 100 wealthiest men on the planet.
Both very cool dudes. Not stuck up or arrogant. Not sure how typical my experience is for men of this degree of success.
