I've never met a single human being who thinks this way. I'm not denying that such people exist but it seems to be an absurdly broad brush.
Edit: thinko.
- petercooper 16y agoPerhaps I have an unusual viewpoint on here but I'm in the UK and there are certainly people who think that way. The disgust for the rich (or even the "well off") held by what are often called "the working classes" is frequently palpable. I've not encountered this disgust of wealthy people to such a level in the US.
