There are entire sects of protestantism that preach wealth is a sign of God's blessing and that the best way to get wealth is by being faithful and hardworking. This belief pre-dated the United States

i would not call the rich slaveowners in the bible rich people. and i would not morph Jesus into the rich slaveowners in the bible because they are not the same. you're creating an express image of God MADE WITH HANDS because your eye is not single.

When the nuclear family fell under attack and no one did anything out of fear of being politically incorrect.
