The rich are the plantation owners, and the working poor are sharecropping, at best.Is that why the rich get richer ... and the poor get poorer?
Just asking ...

Capitalism doesn't readily allow for the means of production to fall into the hands of the proletariat. It's set up that way. Not that I Believe in communism, or capitalism for that matter. I sure do like growin' my own, tho.
I think Ferris Beuller may have said it best:
"I did have a test today. That wasn't bullshit. It's on European socialism. I mean, really, what's the point? I'm not European, I don't plan on being European, so who gives a crap if they're socialist? They could be fascist anarchists - that still wouldn't change the fact that I don't own a car. Not that I condone fascism, or any ism for that matter. Isms in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an ism - he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon: "I don't believe in Beatles - I just believe in me". A good point there. Of course, he was the Walrus. I could be the Walrus - I'd still have to bum rides off of people."
