No, unfortunately, as in "Unfortunately rich assholes horde all of the money while people are hungry and homeless and dying."
Now don't "correct" me again.
It's a good thing we live in a capitalist society, but the downside is that there are greedy, compassionless rich people.

Capitalism isn't the problem, it's the corruption that affects some. ;)
so if i make an extremely succesful business start to extend out and start making large sums of money it is now my obligation to give up the money i worked so god dam hard for? No if people are not wealthy they can't expect the wealthy to give them money that they have no right to ask for. But i will say that those who make huge amounts of money of exploiting others in any way is rediculous and those who don't earn their money but loot it or use government as a way of attaining it is also rediculous

By no means should you give up money you earned. What I meant is that people who keep getting more and more money from their company, but don't give their employees proportional raises, then they're greedy. And I agree; taxing is never the answer to problems. The rich are those who pay the poor. If you tax the rich, they become poor, and so did the people who relied on them. It's a vicious cycle that never ends.
