Answer: They can't of course. They don't have what it takes to do that kind of thing. All they want is a nice paycheck and tons of benefits with no risk of losing their ass.
You do realize that there is a reason that there are winners and losers in this world right?
And it isn't your stupid examples of Paris Hilton. She doesn't have anything to do with your theories.
Nope...it's guys in the "evil" corporate chain. Guys who started off as regular guys in a company and were such bad asses that they outworked everyone around them and rose up the corporate chain.
Years later they make the big bucks. While the less ambitious majority who are working for the weekend so they can drink beer...they get left behind.
No GrantMercury...for every person "born" into wealth, there are a hundred thousand corporate execs who worked their way through the ranks.
Not everything at the top IS cream. But the cream always does rise to the top.
And people with the mindset that you seem to have...always are at the bottom.
You seem to advocate the theory that everybody owes you something.
As Jackson Browne once sang: "Nobody owes you NOTHING."

We don't workers go and do it for themselves?
They do not have access to land, machinery or start up capital, they also are real people in a real situation, so they are peasants thrown of the land and forced in to cities, where forced by hunger to take work in factories...
When workers have had access to land, as in America and Australia that have done exactly what you suggest - started to work for themselves as farmers. In face capitalists did have problems getting workers to work in their factories in the beginning.
Sadly Paris Hilton is the norm and the myth is what you seem to believe. Wealth stays in the same hands generation by generation. There is very little social mobility. The rich buy places for their offspring and keep the poor out of the best universities and jobs.
But please google it and find out for yourself.
