Why do you think Trump gave his daughter to Jared Kushner? It was a political marriage, uniting the Trump and Kushner families. Or do you really believe that Trump's daughter just happened to meet Kushner, fall in love with him, and marry him on her own will? Really?
If only arranged marriage was common among all classes, it's a much healthier system that discourages premarital sex.
You're probably right. There's a reason that most of humanity operated this way throughout history, and eventually the most powerful groups would form the "nobility" as a new class that is privileged to these things, while the serfs are not.
If you look at the family tree of our Presidents and highest ranking politicians, they're all from like three dynasties. It's amazing. The USA was formed specifically to break away from that bullshit.
