In our currently reality this really isn't a distinction
I can see where you're coming from. Imo, it is very much different things. The government is a bunch of people who were elected by people. They were coerced and influences before so I'm not saying fair elections. The rich are mostly people who inherited money and exploited a bunch of people to get more money, over generations.
Imo, there is a biiiig distinction. The former are incompetent at best and malicious at worst. The latter are a problem by definition and on top are malicious at best and actively cruel at worst.
