People who have money have been given a loan from Hashem. Do you think that He gave them money so they could pop out the eyes of everyone they come across by flashing their fancy cars, ritzy houses and designer clothing? I think not.
The wealthy have a responsibility. They may not have asked for it, but they have it just the same. They are responsible to use the money that G-d gave them for the good, not to cause jealousy and resentment from others.
