Yes, I have seen the "rich people..." problem everywhere in the media and also among "ordinary" people. In the case of media it is certainly ironic, as the legacy media is all part of the corporate system, which is certainly amply funded. But in the case of ordinary people it can be seen as considerably irrational. Though I don't see wealth accumulation as the highest human goal, the ability to do it indicates a high overall ability and points to people of exceptional potential social value. Elon stands out, as he has not only proven himself to be a skilled businessman, but has also embraced higher-level ideals, such as free speech.
