This isn't true at all though? The rich get richer, sure, who cares. They aren't stealing from anyone. The poor of today are WAYYYY more wealthy than the poor demographic of say, 1950. People always says there's no upward mobility and that's just not true. If you're not a totally lazy slob with no marketable skills, you will likely exist in both the middle, upper-middle, and upper classes at some point in your life.

Capitalism, for all it's faults (and it has them, but that's mainly in corruption, not some inherent property of the system itself), owns and has cured more poverty than any other system ever. Socialism and communism do nothing but *create* poverty. Please see: All of modern history.

Take the stupid conservative propaganda to Off Topic.
