Jealousy and Resentment Turned to Hatred and Bigotry Against Successful and Wealthy People
While there have always been jealous and resentful people at all levels, it seems in more recent years that this has turned into full blown hatred and increasing bigotry against anyone even perceived as successful or wealthy, even if they are just scraping by though perhaps at a higher quality of life. What happened to people aspiring rather than just being so full of resentment and entitlement?
One of my co-workers I keep having to caution to curb his resentment comments towards successful, or what he perceives as "rich" people. He doesn't seem to understand the repeated warnings to not alienate people.
