The top 2% in wealth are for the most part suffering from a repulsive mental illness. They have far more than they can possibly consume, but like heroin addicts, they desperately crave more money. They are willing to stoop to any filthy deed to get it, including bribing politicians. They most enjoy taking from those who have almost nothing. Oddly, a sizeable proportion of Americans idolise these people, and are happy to sacrifice themselves and others to pamper them. What is really odd, is the general public tries to figure out how to stimulate the 2% to crave still more money, imagining it will then trickle down like a shower of gold from the gods on them. They imagine these folk are the source of all things good, rather than the thieves they are.
