The only place where what you said exists is in your head..

People are people. Most monetarily wealthy people also have multiple years of brainwashing. 4,6,8 years of university level indoctrination. Plus almost EVERYONE has the standard 12 years pre university. Perhaps if you had good parents or were lucky you didn't have 12 years of it.. some parents actually parented, and taught their kids the govt provided childcare they were being sent to was teaching them garbage.

I know someone mid 20's with a recent master's degree who didn't have to take a data structures class in all 6 years at uni, but he is well versed in gender studies as there were multiple requirements. He got offended when I told him he wasn't even a trade school engineer and his uni was garbage.

Monetary assets have little to do with wanting to tear down the American way of life. Being taught that the founders were all racist and evil, that the origins of the country is evil, that the idea of inequality of outcome and the fact that it exists is evil. When your taught the above, and then given the answer, which is socialism, democratic socialism, or whatever label you want to put on it, you'll get where we are at now.

Beyond that, when a people no longer believe their rights come from God and we all answer to Him. The foundation of the country is based entirely upon that bedrock principle, the country will fail when it no longer believes those things. I'm not saying we all have to be Christian, not all the founders were, however they all recognized this fact is what unifies us.

That last reason is why our constitution is largely a dead letter now. Courts make and interpret laws not according to that document, but in spite of it. Legislators make and pass laws, or pass their responsibility to the executive branch now in spite of it. And people worship the executive branch in their states and nationally as if the person were a king with kingly powers in spite of the document that tells us one doesn't exist here.

The anti American sentiments have little to do with money, and everything to do with we the people.
