This piece never once talks about nutrition and is very misleading.

The pervasive upward classism that informs criticisms of free market policies not only misrepresents the contributions of the wealthy but also perpetuates harmful stereotypes. Governments must design policies that promote economic growth without discriminating against any group, whether rich or poor. Addressing crony capitalism and wasteful welfare programs should go hand-in-hand with ensuring fairness in public policy.

I guess that by eating the rich, the poor are getting shafted by the loss to the economy through lost opportunity costs. We lose out on economic growth and more jobs and all other kinds of things, while the tax-takers have the money stick to their fingers. What a good deal.
