  1. Poverty is determined by the level of income, and it is possible to provide income to people who can not hold a job or a job that provides sufficient income to raise them above the poverty level. It is the policy that free market distribution of income  should not be tampered with, that is responsible for poverty since their will always  be some fraction of the population that suffer misfortune . Most capitalist countries provide  to a greater or lesser degree, income  for people who can not provide it for themselves and capitalism  provides the wealth to do so.


  2. Get rich quick schemes in the capitalist business world, (buyouts, IPOs, conglomerates, acquisitions, mergers, and the stock market), do not actually work. Remaining solvent does not actually exist within false economics capitalism.

    Profit existing in the capitalist business world, or millionaires existing within capitalism, is pathological deception committed by the 21 organizations spying on the population with plain clothes agents, (with covert fake names and fake backgrounds).

    Actual economics is the persons that are paying the business loans of companies voting at work in order to control the property they are paying for.

    Capitalism is the psychology of imaginary parents, false economics, and the criminal deception of employees that are paying the bills (including the stocks and bonds, or shares) of companies.

    Anti-Democracy republicanism is the psychology of imaginary parents, and false government.

  3. you can say that communism creates a middle class for everyone, but if you compare that to a capitalist society it will be a mid-level poverty for everyone.

    in a capitalistic society the people in poverty are fat and have tvs, cell phones, etc.  i don't think they are poor

    poverty is based on income.  you can have 10 million dollars and be in poverty
