"The wealth of the few depends upon the poverty of many." My personal
opinion on this statement is most closely described by:
a.
So long as I am amongst the few I don't care.
b.
This is just not true – the rich are simply more “diligent, intelligent, and above
all frugal” (Marx).
c.
This is just not true – if it were not for the generous wealthy, the poor would
be even poorer.
d.
This is absolutely true – there is only so much wealth in the world at any one
moment so if one person has more than their share someone else has to
have less than their share.

something about it.
