You sound like a socialist!

Redistribution now!
But seriously I think you underestimate how these people all compete against each other. Look at Trump himself. The 'establishment' hates him but he's part of what would be considered the 'elite' with the property empire and wealth. They're not getting on even as Trump is giving them tax cuts.
