Your second statement is normative and is subject to debate.

You can debate it all you want but you canot change it.

When the powerful have fewer assets than the non powerful, then the powerful are no longer the powerful, the non powerful now have the power.

The only time there will be equilibrium is when the roles of power are changing.

Therefore, since this is the way of nature, it is the way it is supposed to be.

Do you like apples?

Confusing 'is' and 'ought' is a rookie mistake, Eagle Eye. Read Book I of Republic and get back to me.

Best regards...
