No, he is wrong because first he does not have any financial issues to complain about and second, he plays the righteous knight that knows what is right from wrong because he is on the good side of the establishment. Right and wrong is only in the eye of the beholder. He may bitch about how what was done is illegal but saying it is wrong is at best very questionable. His interest is not others' interest and while it makes sense he defends his interests, it is silly that people on the other side of the "fence" would ingratiatingly be on the elite's side.

Do we get to steal everything from people richer than ourselves?
