Actually, the pigs lives in an egalitarian society. All three had access to straw, sticks, and bricks. Unfortunately, there was no sort of meritocracy involved until the wolf came along. The stupid pigs were allowed to do as they wished. No building codes, and no one wanted to “dwelling-shame” them.
Well with infinite access to resources the pigs should have been stockpiling and starting to build businesses in the expectation that they would have needed to protect their property and could have hired a bigger, badder wolf at an acceptable market rate to ensure a minimal loss
