To your point, who are the very wealthy to decide who needs what all on their lonesome?
Gently, there. There's a big difference in practical outcome between "we've all decided that we need fairer rules" and "we've all decided that we need your stuff".
That's part of why the US isn't actually a democracy. There is wisdom in limiting people's ability to "decide what we all need".
"Multivariate analysis indicates that economic elites and organized groups representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on U.S. government policy, while average citizens and mass-based interest groups have little or no independent influence. The results provide substantial support for theories of Economic-Elite Domination and for theories of Biased Pluralism, but not for theories of Majoritarian Electoral Democracy or Majoritarian Pluralism."
