 Envy (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
Envy should not be permitted to follow as a trivial consequence of the conjunction of your painful desire with the belief that she has (an instance of) its object.
The claim that envy is not a moral emotion may be understood strongly, as the claim that it never involves a moral complaint per se, or weakly, as the claim that it need not embody such a claim.
Envy will be unfitting, for instance, if the rival does not really have the good, or if the ‘good’ isn't really good—for instance if the envy is directed at some possession that the subject would not really value if he knew its true nature.

 Envy, Greek Mythology Link - www.maicar.com
But Athena, who had not forgotten Aglaurus 2's betrayal and kept an eye on her, could not accept that the same girl who, contrary to her command, had uncovered her secret, would now be in favour with Hermes and with her sister, and besides rich in gold.
Envy sat within, eating her usual food: snakes' flesh; but when she saw the goddess, she came out with her teeth foul with mould, her venom dripping down from her tongue, and looking at her with her awry eyes.
So Envy pictured to her imagination the marriage of Hermes and Herse 2, her sister, taking care to magnify the excellence and beauty of everything.

 THE AGE OF ENVY
For example, if a poor man experiences a moment's envy of another man's wealth, the feeling may mean nothing more than a momentary concretization of his desire for wealth; the feeling is not directed against that particular rich person and is concerned with the wealth, not the person.
Envy is part of this creature's feeling, but only the superficial, semirespectable part; it is the tip of an iceberg showing nothing worse than ice, but with the submerged part consisting of a compost of rotting living matter.
This is particularly clear in the much more virulent cases of hatred, masked as envy, for those who possess personal values or virtues: hatred of a man (or a woman) because he (or she) is beautiful or intelligent or successful or honest or happy.

 "The Green-Eyed Monster" by Joseph Epstein
In politics, envy, or at any rate the hope of eliminating it, is said to be the reigning principle of socialism, as greed is said to be that of capitalism (though modern capitalist advertising is about few things more than the regular stimulation of envy).
On the international scene, many if not most wars have been fought because of one nation's envy of another's territory and all they derive from it, or out of jealously guarded riches that a nation feels are endangered by those less rich who are likely to be envious of their superior position.
Apart from emulative envy, the only aspect of envy that does not seem to me pejorative is a form of envy I have myself felt, as I suspect have others who are reading this article: the envy that I think of as faith envy.

Envy and "hopelessly radical political views." This kind of rhetoric might go over in a country club or cigar lounge, but in the world of ideas to which it is presumably addressed, it reads more like an example of the eighth deadly sin: smugness.
Epstein confesses to his own struggles with envy over the course of his musings, which grow in gravitas as he moves beyond individuals to consider how envy between nations leads to war and how anti-Semitism can be interpreted as a particularly malignant manifestation of this deadly sin.
Envy encourages partial blindness because when we envy we reduce our view to one part of a life, the Olympic athlete's skill for example, while neglecting the sacrifices and roads not taken.

 Envy
The “eyes of envy” is one of those details from the narrative of envy in 1 Samuel 18 that connects with the church’s traditions of moral theology.
The stage is set for the sideward glance of envy that is both self-meaning, in that it allows itself to be measured from such a limited perspective, and destructive of the social order because it sacrifices civic pride to competition.
When others are aware of our envy, they may become jealous of their better circumstances and anxious to take precautions against the hostile acts to which our envy makes us prone.” Social institutions can make social discrepancy more pronounced or not.

And in fact, envy based on economic differences was very pronounced in such societies.
In fact, I would venture to guess that envy is less prevalent in the United States than in any other society, which is one reason why we've been so economically successful.
