Capitalism leads to growing inequality and poverty!The three richest capitalists in the world own more money than 600,000,000 workers. These three individuals are not 600,000,000 times smarter than ordinary workers. These three individuals do not work 600,000,000 times harder than the ordinary workers. These three individuals are 600,000,000 times richer because they exploit hundreds of thousands of workers.
the growth of capital inevitably increases the power and rule of the capitalist class over the working class. The rich get richer and the poor poorer. Some say the world should turn to socialism again.What are your views on the issue?

Why should the wealty be penelized for working harder and being smarter then the rest of us? Besides, when Russia was a socialist country they proved it didn't work. There is no incentive to work better or harder if one is given pay wether one workedhard or not. If the tracter belongs to the community why should I bother to take care of it. Let the next person do it. Face it man, it didn't work in Russia. The situation of the poor will not change.
