Better to just "rich" and have the rich defend themselves than say "some rich." How rich is "rich"? Those here who have read my posts over the years know that I'm not talking about the millionaire down the street. The clue was in my final statement in the post. There used to be this term back in the 50s and 60s: "nouveau rich." That meant people who just became rich, would often unwisely flaunt their wealth even in a few years become "nouveau poor." Later we called these "yuppies." Wealth is a responsibility. I can change someone. And BTW, I not just someone casting aspersions from the peanut gallery. My own brother was an on again off again millionaire defense contractor (so I can also be a critic of the latter having seen it from the "inside."). And if one thinks I'm jealous, I did okay in the 1990s as a tech guy. I'll talk about wealth more and billionaires when I respond to Turq's post. > > , here's an article >> and video about the Nestle CEO who wants all water privatized.
