Uh... am I missing something in this thread? Most of the poorest 50% of the planet are not living in first world capitalist countries, but in fake socialist economies where corruption and nepotism rule the roost. In which Western capitalist country does the average person have $118 worth of savings? Maybe we should blame the idiotic politicians in most of these countries, instead of rich people?

No, they're living in third world countries, run by a rich (capitalist) elite.

Don't you support protectionism and heave immigration restrictions? Because those things would make it even harder for people in poor countries to get out of poverty.
