The problem is the owners of the capital don't want to share it with anyone else. When will they realize that at some point there will be no one to buy their goods?
They don't want to pay their fair share of taxes, they don't want to pay to clean up after themselves or find a use for their waste products...
They only care about a cheap supply of workers whom they've turned into a commodity, to be plugged in where needed and discarded when the need changes.
Sorry for the rant, but I've just finished reading "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy" by Greg Palast.
