Poll on Wealth 2 [View all]

"To what degree do you believe that we, as a society, actually NEED people who have acquired great wealth?"

Corollary questions for discussion: Do you believe that we might be able to run this country, and this world, without catering to the wishes of people who have acquired great wealth? Could we manage to make a decent life without them, or, at least, without treating them as if they matter more than the rest of us?
