    Wait… So all of those rich and billionaires in socialist countries are just figments of imagination?

    Also, have you looked at how terrible the US upward mobility rankings are now? Under Capitalism you aren’t likely to move anywhere unless you’re born into it.

      The rich and powerful in socialist countries were born into it.

      I can’t argue with social mobility being harder than ever under capitalism now. But perception often lags reality which is why people defend the broken system
