I always heard it in the context of trivia, like the eye of the needle was a really small gate used to allow pedestrian access to the city while allowing a wall to still keep out armies. A camel still wouldn't fit by design, so I guess I've never heard it in the context of apologetics of rich people, or maybe I assumed the people I was talking to were being good-faith.
