I would argue that the wealthy are doing what they have an incentive to do, which is to hoard wealth. The problem is, rather than their wealth "trickling down" throughout the economy from their clouds, it is sitting in their bank accounts or estates, earning interest. Can you blame them? They are simply adapting to the incentives put in place by our economic system.

Rather than make any dead-end accusations about wealthy people being good vs. evil, the focus should be on altering the system such that people are given the right incentives to do what is best for the economy as a whole.
