Yeah we shouldn't underestimate the appeal of power, it's less quantifiable, but in it's essence similar to net worth (at a certain wealth).
Yet if we wouldn't have this inequality because of capitalism, the political power might well be more focused on the good for the people (and less to the wealthy)
