I just have to ask... how do you define wealthy? If you define it as the handful of CEOs/executives who make millions or even billions of dollars a year, you might be right.
However, there are many, many, many people (most of whom are not top executives at multi-billion dollar, multi-national corporations) who are considered "wealthy" and they ARE the ones starting businesses, funding schools, donating to charities and much more.
I understand your frustration at those who abuse their position and money, but assuming that their corruption extends to others is wrong.
