But we are bombarded with commercials every day, that want's us to wish for things we don't have. It is a foundation of our society.
Also rich people have more power than poor, even in democracies.
And if there is too wide a gap between people in a society, they have fewer common goals.

Yeah, because the folks making the advertisements aren't wasting energy wishing for things they don't have, they're going out and putting themselves in a position where they can buy those things if they want.
