If you're referring to the territorial expansion in the United States that was sanctioned by the government, land gave people "solid wealth" that was overall more valuable but was difficult to spend.

Unitary states are the opposite of federations, in which governing power is shared by a national government and its subdivisions. The unitary state is the most common form of government in the world.

Afghanistan
Albania
Algeria
Angola
Armenia
Azerbaijan
Bangladesh
Belarus

The first major American opposition to British policy came in 1765 after Parliament passed the Stamp Act, a taxation measure designed to raise revenues for a standing British army in America. Under the banner of “no taxation without representation,” colonists convened the Stamp Act Congress in October 1765 to vocalize their opposition to the tax. With its enactment in November, most colonists called for a boycott of British goods, and some organized attacks on customhouses and homes of tax collectors.
After months of protest in the colonies, Parliament finally voted to repeal the Stamp Act in March 1766. Most colonists continued to quietly accept British rule until Parliament’s enactment of the Tea Act in 1773, a bill designed to save the faltering British East India Company by greatly lowering its tea tax and granting it a monopoly on the American tea trade. The low tax allowed the company to undercut even tea smuggled into America by Dutch traders, and many colonists viewed the act as another example of taxation tyranny. Hope this helps!
The correct answer is: "The elites use their payoffs to stay in power."
Firms constantly seek to hire as cheap as possible. The less amount they pay in terms of salaries, the greater will be the margin of profits, as the calculation will be profit= revenue - costs, being salaries one fraction of the costs.
This mechanism produces an increase of the inequality gap. Workers get lower salaries and firmowners and directives keep on rising the amount of profits generated by their businesses, and in turn, their payoffs also grow. This trend creates elites.
