the overprivileged class

(n.) -- Those people in any society who are at a huge economic, cultural or moral advantage based on social constructs, ascribed status and/or nationality.

We always hear about the underprivileged class -- those people who have little money and have to struggle all their lives -- but we seldom hear about the overprivileged class: those who have too much money and never have to struggle at all.
