Unfortunately, the wealthiest do not want others to become wealthy and will, in fact, spend their wealth making sure that doesn't happen. Rather than cherish competition, they crush it.
The mantra of the wealthiest is "It is not enough that I win; others must lose."
What good is a 60' yacht if everyone has a 60' yacht? They do not wish to merely possess things, but to possess things that no one else can possess.

BTW, I see a BIG difference between being rich from one's innovative, hard-working labors, and being WEALTHY.

Like Chris Rock said, "Shaq is rich. The old, white guy signing Shaq's checks is wealthy."
