What if the 1% are all criminals? Aren't we a country of rule and law and human rights?

What if all the people with the money are just rapists, murders, violent offenders and molesters? It might justify their greed and the need to protect it. They seem to have a disregard for human life and have proven that.  We like to say we are about human rights. We say we are a  nation of rule of law. Should we allow criminals to run society solely on the merit that they have selfishly amassed a fortune and purchase politicians to keep it that way? And by the way, all the resources of this country belong to the Native population. Anything else is outright theft.
