If you're serious, sure. For there to be a top class, a rich class, some winners, there must necessarily be a bottom class, a poor class, some losers. Some people feel like enriching these people will be default destroy their position.

They don't seem to realize or care that their level of have can fix so many people's have-not, and it can be done quickly and efficiently and without actually significantly altering their own lifestyle. They're worried that if the have-nots suddenly have something, they will become part of the haves, the winners, and well... If there are no losers, what's the point of being a WINNER right?
