Yes, and that's exactly how I like it and how it should be in nature. Most social animals have a hierarchy that leads to amassing of resources towards the top. Trying to collectively meet human needs is socialist.

That does not work. Take Trinidad & Tobago for example. T&T is one of the wealthiest countries in the Caribbean as well as having one of the highest GDP (PPP) per capita in the Americas, and yet most of T&T citizens are poor, the roads are in bad condition, and hardly any police stations for miles etc. So where is that wealth going? Definitely not towards human needs.

I don't want wealth going towards human needs, it should be going to whoever is producing it. Needs are the individuals job to ensure for themselves. Individual needs if you will. Society shouldnt be concerned with ensuring human needs are met, individuals can attempt to meet them for themselves and fail or succeed.
