Not really. You don't read news and magazine articles from the 50s 60s and 70s decrying the contribution of the wealthy to the common good. You see people complaining about the taxation of the wealthy during periods of high income inequality. You see the same thing in other countries as well. Presently we tax wages heavily for middle income levels and tax capital gains at a much much lower rate.

People are pissed that the wealthy, wielding their outsized political influence have pulled up the ladder of opportunity behind themselves.
