Depends on how you define rich. If I make enough to have a decent home, food on the table and have a rainy day fund, does that make me rich?

In this economy? yeah, rich

Everyone should be able to afford a comfortable life, and the money is there. But it's not being fairly distributed, and as such, the wealth gap makes a stable - relatively stress-free - life equal to being rich.
