That's not really true at all, capitalism allows people to start poor and become rich. No other system does that. Please see: Immigrants from west africa, asia and india.

Them not knowing is a thorn in my side. God tells me they will in time. I'm, a noob at all this.

I was Saul. A murderer.

Now I'm Paul, mouth of Christ.

God is perfect.

Everyone rides the rollercoaster of joy and pain daily.

The promise of upward mobility has become a false song.

Communism is pretty incompatible with a happy life btw. Please see: The last 150 years of human history. Like seriously, give me your best communist nation. And why aren't you living in it? Please just answer those questions.

The United States of America

It's not communism though, its a New World Order. Only thing we care about is your Wall Street, not you.
We create new wars and make yours fight in them and you worship us and our idols.

Well except for all the people who do move upward, sure.

"Nobody EVER moves up!"

*bezos flies to space in penis rocket*
*google is the most powerful company in the world*
*young entrepreneur competes based on merit and becomes extremely wealthy*

There's always opportunity in every game and there's always cheating.

Yes I agree, utopia would be good. If you have a plan to achieve "upward mobility for all" I'd love to hear it.

(We already have it, btw.)
