77. Are ALL rich people hated, or is there a selection process - a list

maybe of rich people that are ok not to hate?

I've heard good things said about the Kennedys, all of them. From time to time there will be nice things said about Kerry. Some say Michael Jackson had wealth, and he was spoken highly of, and mourned mightily when he passed.

I know we hate McCain, but is he the only wealthy member of congress? Surely there are some on the 'other side of the aisle' that we forgive for having fat checkbooks and big houses.

People in the entertainment field often have scads of cash, and we tolerate some of them.

How can we cull out the rich folk that we like from the "I hate the rich" group?
