If you think that the problem that we have with inequality is that some people have jets and hot couples you are missing the point of the parent's post.
I couldn't care less that Mr.Rich have a jet, I care that Mr.Rich decide to mess with the political process in order to get more jets. I care that in the more advances societies of the world in the most rich period of history, there are people that struggle to get necessary health-care or a roof over their heads (probably because Mr.Rich is messing with the political process).
>>"Should the group, who by and large, has contributed more to the society not have proportionally more say?"
Of course they should. It's only that, probably, we have different views about who that group is.
