You must agree though, unless you are one of those, that the salaries and bonuses earned by the corporate elites are so completely out of step of what most working people can possibly earn, yearly, even monthly, salaries often equating lifetime salaries. This is what is unacceptable. And "legal" earnings are often due to loopholes in the law, which the corporates spend big money on creating. 

Very often it is not wealth itself that creates envy, but the arrogant display of it that creates anger. 

"Socialist rubbish the world over?" On what planet do you live? This is almost completely a capitalist world, where the most equal societies are socialist democracies.
