Some decry it as nepotism, as if those who are wealthy are not allowed to have preference for their own kind simply because they are wealthy.

Eh, I don’t think it was okay for the WASP owners of the Los Angeles Country Club to “prefer their own kind”.

Maybe the right heuristic is something like: the more power and dominance a group of people have, the less okay it is for them to have preferences for others within that group.
