Study nations that have avidly gone into "redistribution" of wealth. No one has their standard of living raised. In actual practice a vast majority of the citizens have their assets compressed to a lower level. The elite, political, or whatever, remains the same or more often have their standards raised substantially.
Gee, can we draw any parallels here? i.e. The old Soviet Union, Cuba, Zimbabwe, et al.
