How does capitalism reward the best people? There are those who are merely merely because their parents were, and there are those who work 60+ hours a week to just barely afford basic necessities.

I dunno, if you work 60+ and struggle for necessities in most cases you probably made some poor life decisions (assuming there were no medical issues).

For example, I'll never understand women that make multiple children with a useless man and no job skills. That might be the primary cause of poverty in the US.

Circumstances change. Just because they can't support a family now doesn't mean that they weren't able to in the past. However, even if you do lose your job or something like that, it's not like you can just get rid of your children, so they'll probably be doomed into poverty as well because they won't be able to afford good education.

The question is, why should there be poverty in the first place? There are billionaires who are never going to spend even close to what they have, why hoard all of that money?
