Envy almost inevitably rises with prosperity. Many become more miserable when their neighbor isn’t as miserable as they are. It rises with the decline of Christian beliefs as well.
Christianity frowns rather strictly on envy. "Thou shalt not covet...".

It is one of the reasons Christianity and The Holy Bible are not allowed in our public schools or in public discourse. The Democrats get votes from envy and greed. Both mortal sins.
