Being rich isn’t a protected group in the workplace.

There's a certain irony to saying that, considering the whole point of a workplace is to make someone richer, usually the already rich.

It is impossible to have apolitical rules regulating which political discussions are allowed.
Hell, just banning political discussion - any political discussion - is a political act. It's always a political act.
Not just any group of people, naturally, but particular groups.
Politics necessarily makes certain groups uncomfortable. A discussion of wealth redistribution makes the rich incomfortable, should such things be impermissible? Politics enables certain groups to be favoured, and others to be disfavoured. This is a good reason to ban politics in general, but if you allow it, you need consistent rules regarding which sorts of views are permissible, rules that aren't themselves political.
