It is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury. There are times, especially in the realm of power and politics, when cunning fools live in luxury. These cunning fools are sometimes corrupt too and make many problems for the countries in which they have responsibility. The Bible exhorts us strongly to pray for our National Leaders and surely we should do so.
