I've heard it from liberals before, actually recently. As recently as last week said to my face. Why would one rich person ask Oprah if SHE feels guilty? Does that person feel guilty also?
Rich people DO feel guilty.:
"I had taken one of my wealthy friends with me. She said, 'Don't you just feel guilty? Don't you just feel terrible?'
That's why the Hollywood activist types are always so cause-driven - they have to atone for their wealth. It's a burden to be wealthy, when the everyday person isn't. You feel tremendous guilt. But, apparently, Oprah doesn't. Maybe she feels that her generosity to causes more than atones for her wealth.
