It has been said that love of money is the root of all evil.
I say covetousness and envy is the root of all evil. Do not want what others have -- want what you can earn by making value in the world. If you cannot make something others value, what fault is it of theirs? Or of others who were wise enough to create value for others?
The person who creates value for others has already given back. And they have given back far more than anything they may have taken -- assuming they have taken anything at all. Wealth is not created by taking from others. Wealth is created when value is exchanged for value, when two have increased value in the world and are better off for having exchanged what they had that the other wanted.
Wealth is only ever created or destroyed -- it cannot be redistributed. Only richest can be redistributed.
Wealth has nothing to do with money.
