Billionaires are a convenient distraction for the upper middle class.

The wealthiest group of people (on the whole) is the 70-95th percentile.

If we were to have the toppling of "the rich" that brought about meaningful change to the "poor", it would necessarily include the toppling of the ~$200k income households.
