queer and black people don't have money. those other groups do.
if all the sudden queer people were billionaires, you can sure as shit bet they'd be promised political power. in exchange for their money. they'd be running corporations, in political office, etc.
it just turns out that it's mostly white dudes who have all the money, and some white women, and the occasional random other non-white person has it. in USA at least. obviously different in other countries.
Gay people have exactly as much money as everyone else. There are proportionately as many gay billionaires as there are gay homeless people.
