Brother, I don't want say this just to internet-bicker, but I'm in the US, and we've got a meaningful percent of the population who has very real wealth-envy. People who despise the successful and believe that they are somehow cheating. We see it in political debates often, about how the wealthy should "pay-their-fair-share"... as if the reason that they're rich is because the government didn't take *their* money, but it did take the complainer's? And one of the oddest aspects of that wealth-hatred, is that some people despise the wealthy... _but also want to _*_be_*_ them._ That is some serious cognitive dissonance. Having said all of that, I do remember reading an article long, long ago, about how Chrysler - a formerly American company - was purchased by Daimler, and that the merger of these two companies under the Daimler label was spotty, because some of the Chrysler executives were making 100x the factory laborer's salary in the US, but the Daimler executives were making only 10x the factory laborer's salary in Europe (I don't remember the actual rates, only that the US staff had a huge gap between the top and bottom, but that the European had a reduced amount.) And I do see your overall point -- *and I agree! You are right!* Some people are threatened by the success of others. You can see that manifest in different ways, too. Some people feel that a sincere compliment to another person is the same as an insult to themselves.... and I believe that is the same mindset as what you are describing. Cheers.
