You sound like someone jealous of people who make lots of money. I don’t begrudge anyone who is either wealthy or working to achieve wealth and success. It used to be what people aspired to in this country. But now the liberals make it sound like something bad. Maybe you could jump on the bandwagon for Obama’s latest distraction that he says he will focus on like a laser....income inequality. That way instead of rich and poor, everyone could be equally poor (except for the elite liberals, of course). Instead of equal opportunity to get ahead, we could just give up and go for the redistribution of wealth from those that have to it those that don’t, like yourself. Its called communism.
My doctor told me that wealth will always attract the mercenary. The fact is that people will pay any price to keep their health and save their lives. There is no more valuable thing on earth than one’s life. If doctors grow wealthy, if the practice of medicine creates great wealth, then it will attract also the power-hungry politician. He will want to control both the wealth and the source of the wealth. A professional class that stand between him and his political clientele is one whose independence he will seek to diminish and to serve his interest.
