It doesn't have anything to do with how many there are, but how much wealth they hold. And the 0.1% hold an enormous amount of wealth which absolutely would help fund effective services for the poor.

You could have one guy with a hundred trillion dollars and the fact that he's just one guy would be irrelevant.
