It is unfortunate to misquote someone in such a polarized debate. What Hollande really said is better translated as "I don't like rich people, I don't like rich people, I have to admit".[1] Why put more violent words in his mouth?

(As mentioned in the linked article, he also later said: "This was too short a wording. I appreciate talent, work, merit. What I don't accept is indecent wealth.")
