Just not allowing myself to behave like an envious little punk. I do see problems with the existing social systems, it's just that being prevented from robbing those who have more is not a problem. It's a very good design feature.
Not at all, just my parents, while not perfect, have taught me to work for myself and respect the rights of others and their independence.
As for you being envious, the existing system benefits you, you are not dying from hunger or doing unqualified labor under threat of a whip.
It's not a system of distribution of some common good which fell from the sky and now has to be shared fairly. Nobody "feeds the 1%", they use what they own.
Everybody in America does labor under the threat of a whip unless they're an unemployed adult hanging out in the boonies somewhere.
