I think you would find many take issue with the concept that those getting rich are by definition the ones who "earned" it, or produced the value. Almost by definition I produced more value than my salary.

There's also the issue of resources. How is it that a corporation can own the oil under my land? Why should that common resource be controlled by some private entity rather than being used for the common good?

There's a balance in all things and attempting to boil this down to "there are two kinds of people" is reductive and unhelpful.
