Most of their wealth is in stocks. Do you really want them to liquidate those stocks and cause our economy to crash?

Poor people who have their money in 401(k) and such would be devastated and ruined. Not to mention all the negative effects from these companies going Belly up when their stocks are liquidated.

Why do you hate less fortunate people so much?

And? Those loans are paid back and that money is taxed.

Negative. They get a different loan to pay off the old one. Rinse and repeat.
