    Billionaires are allowed to live in society

    No, they’re the ones who allow, not the ones who are allowed.

      At this point I have no idea what you’re trying to say with any of your comments. All of the words individually make sense and even the sentences are valid, but the end result don’t form into a coherent thought.

        To “allow” a thing means that some actor has the power to give or deny permission for the thing. There are no actors who have the power to deny permission for there to be billionaires in society. Indeed, billionaires are the category of actors who have more power to give or deny permission than any other category, particularly when it comes to how society is constituted.
