It seems that there is a war on the rich.  President Obama wants to raise taxes on the rich.  Occupy Wall Street was willing to camp in their own poop in order to protest the rich.  Even the latest Batman Rises movie had an apathetic theme about the rich.  But who are these people that so many people are so ready to hate?  A couple of the names from the Forbes 400 list:

• Bill Gates – Founded Microsoft which directly employs 94,000
• Larry Ellison – Co-founded Oracle which employs 115,166
• Walton Family – Family of Sam Walton who founded Walmart which employs 2.2 million
• Michael Bloomberg – Founder of Bloomberg LP which employs 13,000
• Jeff Bezos – Founder of Amazon.com which employs 69,100
