Fred, wrong once again. I have been in Scottsdale, AZ and at Harold's in Cave Creek, so you have no idea what you are talking about in your last post and I know someone needs to be wealthy to live in that suburb of Phoenix. Ever go golfing at one of the many resorts in the area? How about hiking at one of the trails in the neighborhood? Harold's is the best Steelers bar west of Pittsburgh? How many Steelers bars have you actually been in?

Take away the Pittsburgh stuff out of the bar and it is nothing but your typical small-town country bar.

Again, my point stands regardless of your posted links proving nothing. Most of the richest Americans got their wealth through inheritance. If you really believe that all you need is hard work, then you did not even read your suggested "The Millionaire Next Door." One of the main things they suggest to get rich is to have the "right" job. You need to read the book "Outliers." How many "neighbors" do you have? Four? I am sure if you surveyed many more more people in Scottsdale, I am sure most would have come from a very well-to-do family.

I guess you do believe that people who do not work for wealth should not pay for it and those who work hard everyday and not necessarily get rich because they help to better the community, like fire firefighters, police officers, CNAs, and others, should pay more than their fair share of taxes that the rich are not paying.
