I agree with this, and I think we are generally in agreement.
Rich people are mostly white males. For example, check your favourite image search for "rich people". Correlation is not causation but correlation is correlation.
The root cause is the lack of access to education, and ignorance of others.
I would prefer to say that the root causes are exactly what you said: "here, have the shit jobs", "us being actively hostile to you", "we are going to bully you".
Those problems are not being solved through education: schools, as they exist today, foster this type of behaviour. And so, well-educated adults are no less likely to exhibit this type of behaviour and are more likely to be in a position where it's a serious problem.
