Just to check back in, I actually sympathize more with the Wall Street protestors. The gap between rich and poor has grown too big. Also, I worry less about the size of government than about its competence.

I don't understand what the significance of any "gap" might be.  Just because they are superior to us at making money why should we then steal their money?  I have a few friends that play basketball better than me so should I break some of their limbs to "make it fair" or should I automatically get spotted the average difference in our 21 scores or what?

Remember these "rich" are taking nothing from you.  They bring food to the party and they are sharing some.  If you removed them completely you would have less of their gifts so before you criticize and demand more of them you had better seriously consider what you are saying.
There are only 10 types of people in the world:  those who understand binary, and those who don't.
