The thing is, billionaires "win" no matter what we do (just look at the likes of Zuckerberg's dead fish eyed stare: that's "winning" folks, apparently! Makes me glad that I'm just a scumbag "loser" who can actually enjoy some aspects of life!?). So the rest of us might as well get something that we want out of it all as well?
