"A People's History of the United States" reaction

I really appreciate the beggining of the passage where there is a relation of hoe each member of the U.S. is considered a rain drop, and together we create the roll of a wave on the sea.  This metaphor alone helps my understanding of the Constitution even more, it shows how we are encouraged to have the freedom to be our own individual, but at the same time can come together as one and get whatever we need to be done accomplished.  The threat, power and potential the so called "wave" of America possesses is overwhelming compared to any government overpower, "by the people, for the people" is the selection of appropiate words for here.  I am rather curious as to why this Beard fellow thinks that the rich are so at risk with the economic aspects of the Constitution?  The government isn't some sort of comunistic spinoff which would take the money from all and make everyone's wealth the same, sure there might be some more economic responsibility for those who have SOME MORE money than others, but that only makes sense; the percentage is always fair.  By that I mean that any amount taken from someone that is the same percentage as taken from someone with more money, may be less in total amount, but remains the same in personal economic value to their total amount owned; am I rambling yet?  In Beard's study of the 55 men involved with the writing of the Constitution, why didn't he involve a more diverse crowd appose to the universal cultural men of wealthy demographics?  Was the intellegance of these men with their investing powers and growing wealth perhaps considered unconstitutional?  Was it too unfair for them to become that financially well off?  So as far as I am comprehending, they are using their own money to invest in these bonds, which they would gain money off of by means of taxation of others.. seems like stealing to me in a way.  I was under the impression that taxation was originally frowned upon if not unconstitutional at this time. 

VISUALS:This picture of the Constitution ripped in four is symbolic of the 4 groups which were not considered wealthy enough to have had reflected interest of the constitution on them.  Slaves, Women, Indentured servants, and men without property... none of which were wealthy enough to help make this change to support themselves... According to Beard.
 This picture, shows representation of Shay's rebellion.  A time where people who were not considerable of the constitution (as mentioned above) fought back for thier equal rights which they helped to gain.
