the rich
why do i hate the rich? heh. actually i don't. i think everyone should work hard and be rich. it's what that whole land of opportunity thing is all about. in timmer's ideal world the law of diminishing returns would apply to all income/wealth brackets. like say you're a war refugee or a new collidj grad. you start working and the reward is high. you work for a while and accumulate some wealth. now the reward should be reduced. a little at first. continue accumulating wealth and the reward continues dropping. but not too far. you should always be able to get more wealth by working more. however, at some point you decide you have enough wealth and you'd rather spend your time enjoying it than spend your time making more. so far i don't think i've said anything too controversial.
