I'm afraid you're right. When all is said and done, that's the problem. The "haves" can go on endlessly arguing that there's all kinds of reasons why things need to be the way they are. Some will give you racist arguments. Others are more sophisticated and will get into drawn out, esoteric economics.

But really? They've got theirs. Everybody else can GFY.

It's a hard thing for anyone to admit to themselves, so you have to cut them some slack. Also, we all have a bit of that attitude in us, so one must be careful judging.

But we shouldn't give up. We all need to at least try to work toward a fairer, more peaceful world.
