Re: This is one reason we hate the uber-wealthy
Where I draw the line is ostentatious wealth that serves no purpose. I don't/wouldn't deny people their luxuries. I would enjoy some myself if I were wealthy but I'd be damn sure a lot of the money went to help people. I wouldn't be buying Marilyn Monroe's gowns for over a million $$. I wouldn't buy a Monet painting even though I absolutely love his work and would love to have one of his paintings on my wall. A living painter, I might buy because that goes to feed the artist and that artist will spend the money.
But when you spend a mill for a dress, the person to whom that money goes will not necessarily spread it around. You can't guarantee that.
