Why are people so much less resentful of Sir Paul McCartney’s wealth than Bill Gates’? Possible answers:

• McCartney’s product is purely optional. Gates’ product you are forced to buy.
• McCartney’s product causes joy. Gates’ product causes frustration.
• McCartney made his money honestly. Gates made his money by all manner of unethical business practices.
