What if all our rich people were like Warren Buffet or the late Bobby Kennedy? [View all]

What if the rich spent their time making the world a better place for everyone instead of trying to keep the mob out of it's site and crushed under foot?

What if the least among us had just enough to get by and could smile just about every day for some good reason?

What if the rich were kind and good of heart and expected humanity to soar and meet our potential together?

What if rich people thought planet Earth was worth saving and not someplace to take advantage of for their short stay here?

HOW different would this world be?
