"And this idea that Herman Cain said that, you know, if you're not rich, blame yourself - this is what bothers me about rich people. They don't, first of all, as Elizabeth Warren said, they don't cotton to the idea they wouldn't be rich if they didn't have this great country that provides the roads and the schools and all the other things that allow them to be rich. But also this idea, they never understand it's a fluke mostly, that what you do is something that made you rich....Yes, Herman Cain was good at business. Great. He became very rich from it. But what about teachers and cops and firemen? You know those people we always say are our heroes. They're such heroes that we pay them like crap. Well, they do what they do very well. It doesn't happen to be something that is ever going to make you rich. So, this idea that if you're not rich, blame yourself - oh, really bugs me. But I tried to hide it." -Bill Maher, host of "Real Time with Bill Maher," on the wealth divide and how people become rich
