Mini-kings might be a good thing for society. Imagine everyone is middle class, and the government is the only entity that has large amounts of money.

I think we are lucky that geeks are also getting rich and may do geeky things (such as things for the greater good), with some of that money.

Everyone middle class, no poors, no homeless? That sounds extremely nice, better than current society's big inequalities.

Oh I really meant being capped at middle class. But everyone middle class would be great.
