I know right? I work hard and do well for my family, but I know there are folks who have much higher incomes and wealth and enjoy much more privileges. Some of them have earned it and some haven't. I spend zero percent of my life being upset about this. Why do so many young people in basically my same life station fret about it so very much? It seems very toddlerish, to be so upset just because you saw someone with a toy you don't have.

It’s not greed and looking up it’s empathy and looking down.
"Eat the rich" isn't that, no
No looking at the destitute and feeling that wealth redistribution is a good solution with a pithy slogan is not greed.
Leftists should get some better slogan writers so they don't have to constantly tell everyone that what they mean is completely different than what they're saying.
