The rich guy can afford to not work and do these hours. I doubt a guy living on paycheck to paycheck and working weekends to make ends meet will be hurting less than the rich guy.
Again, disporportionate.
Oh really? The government considers me to be one of the rich, even though I make just enough to get by in a high-cost-of-living area. I could ill-afford to spend 40 hours doing community service. Likewise, most others who are considered to be rich have little time to sweep up trash because they broke the law. The picture you paint above is of some ultra-rich guy who doesn't work for his money, and a poor laborer who must work every day to put food on the table. These are ridiculous extremes.
Time is a precious commodity of which no one has excess.
