I didn't equate the two, though i believe there might be a positive correlation. The greedy are more incined to pursue wealth and perhaps because of this fact, more likely to achieve it. It is a pretty simplistic theory, i'll give you that.

If it weren't for the masses, no individual would be able to acquire any wealth at all. And also, if the masses don't feel like the current system is benefitting them, then they are perfectly entitled to change it. "Sharing the wealth" is a good policy in terms of self preservation.

Another interesting question: Why should the masses be obligated to allow anyone to accumulate wealth?

That isn't what he said. Don't derail your own thread.
