   Yes, one in which they are morally superior to more successful people   
   because of what they (claim to) believe, since they can't earn respect

   "This is why conservatives and libertarians were so infuriated by President   
   Obama’s recent “you didn’t build that” remarks. ...   
   It wasn’t their hard work or innovative ideas that were responsible for   
   their success, the president said. Rather, they were merely beneficiaries of   
   public goods such as schools or roads for which they have not adequately   
   paid taxes. Or they were just plain lucky."   
      
   Just deny that anyone else can do something you can't, or ascribe their   
   accomplishments to evil to justify confiscation.
