What do you call a wealthy person who doesn't care about how the poor feel and live?

In Persian a wealthy person with no hardships who is unfeeling and cruel to the poor is known as a:

مرفه بیدرد – someone who is featherbedded and can’t ever understand the unprivileged’s feeling and pain.

Is there a similar word in English which denotes a filthy rich class who shows no sympathy toward the poor?

Example:

In a stagflation or economic crisis ______ never understand how the middle class feel when they’re trying not to slide down to the line of poverty, and just they’re just trying to make ends meet.
