This is just how capitalism works. Society's resources are divied up based on capital. But capital is one of those resources. So it feedback loops into concentrating more and more resources into fewer and fewer hands. And elon is the poster child for just how incompetent you can be and it not matter.

Well yeah its not about competence. Its about how much capital you already have. That's the only prerequisite to power.
