"he wealthy simply leave (because they can afford to), and let place that they set on fire burn to the ground,"
There was a movie while ago where the rich people lived in space in beautiful habitats, had technology that could heal anybody while the rest had to labor on Earth under terrible conditions. Don't remember the name but maybe the move isn't that fictitious.

A visceral visual version of it is easy to see in Brazil https://globalperipheries.wordpress.com/2011/06/30/the-favelas-and-gated-communities-of-suburban-brazil/ https://globalperipheries.wordpress.com/2011/06/30/the-favel... But a version of this is present in America too. With areas without drinkable water, and areas w/o even a working sanitation system.
