This country has so many people on the Gov't dole,
You could make a compelling argument that income inequality contributes to this.

I have no problem with wealthy people but it needs to have some relation to what they contribute. And Vols wealth building line of questioning adds nothing to that discussion

Or an even more compelling one, that Gov't creates the situations for increased poverty and rewards people to make less. Hell, they spend millions in Mexico, advertising how to come and get on Gov't programs.

What, you're asking for everyone to be on an hourly wage? Never known anyone who climbed to a higher income bracket working less than 10 hours a day. I've never worked a salary that was less than 12 hours a day.

They contribute with jobs for others. Dictating what anyone does with their wealth, is nothing short of getting to: to each according to his ability, to each according to his needs type of thinking. And having said that, it's unreal, how many people agree with that today, not having a clue as to who said it and what it leads to.
