What people are angry about is how wealth is used to influence our political system. It is not that people may be rich but what people and corporations are doing with the power they have with wealth. Money is political power in a corporatocracy; it destroys the "democratic republicanism" of a government for the people by the people. With corporatism, whoever has the most money has the most influence on our government. Republicans worship at this altar. Getting rich is fine but using your wealth to buy lobbyists and politicians is morally wrong and undemocratic.
