Hey, are you denying me the opportunity to work very hard every day so one day I may become a billionaire?

The system is built to deny you that as well, yes.

But if I lick their boots enough, they will come to like and respect me, right?

I was just faced with this recently. I started doing freelance work due to disability and to have the freedom to say no to nightmare clients. Welp, I encountered such a client and they threw a whole fit at basic boundaries. But it directly cost me money and potentially the relationship to the person that introduced us so guess who still loses and faces consequences? Never the rich asshole! They can just keep throwing pennies at people until someone is desperate enough to get exploited.
