Of course it is always one's freedom to do as they like with money they earn but I think there is some validity to it. We will never all be equal, but that doesn't mean one can't work toward it. I would rather see that $10K put towards some kid's education. And you know there is a difference between creme brulee and "getting enough to eat".
