While the ultra-rich do not care if their power bill at their mansion goes from $2,000 a month to $5,000, since they make north of a million a month anyway, the common person cannot pay a $500 electric bill that used to be $200. That's roughly $3,500 a year of additional expense they do not have. To cut that $500 bill back to somethin they can afford they cannot have either heat or air conditioning, and might not be able to have hot water!

This is the crux of it all: those in influence/power simply do not care about the common man and, as we have seen by many of the policies pushed (monetary, "pandemic", immigration/"H1B" [non-]enforcement, etc), can reasonably be claimed to despise him.
