"The rich get richer because they continue to do what made them rich... ditto the poor."

Nutshell.

Okay, so a wealthy man such as Warren Buffett is not to be commended for his generous gifts, because the fact that he had such wealth highlights gaps between rich and poor?


Should we all just become communists then? Not sure where they are coming from here, or what exactly the complaint is.

Not really. If you pick rice in a paddy and make $40.00 a month and that is what it takes to feed your family, then compare that to a person who makes $120,000.00 a year and is able to invest $20,000.00 of that money per year your logic is flawed at best.
