You are looking for extremes, whereas I am merely looking at it from the average behavior of wealthy people.
If there is a large wealth inequality that means that the relatively poor will simply have a smaller piece of the cake and the wealthy growing their wealth will have a larger impact on the poor, percentage-wise. Now, if that growth is only due to hard work, then you can't really argue against that; however, if that growth is partially due to "wealth abuse", then that's a different matter.
Sure, your very unlikely to ever encounter such a situation… But any given wealthy person you encounter in life is also very unlikely to be so malicious?
