The owners of capital - the "Leisure class" that dont need to create yet exist in every society - have another purpose beyond creating things and that is to keep an extremely diverse set of chimps (with different needs, personalities,values,skill,knowlege etc) together. This not something the creative classes can do.
As the gaps and differences between people grow in all kinds of dimension, keeping the chimp troupe together is a non trivial issue.
Thats why over the top luxury, leisure, compensation levels etc emerge. People of all kinds lap that shit up when they get a taste. But since its a superficial quick fix solution to the root problem of social cohesion lots of new issues get created.
The creative classes are not spending enough time on root cause (especially once they get a taste of luxury and leisure).
