One of the worst facets of capitalism is that in order to get richer, someone else has to get poorer, and its damn near impossible to stop that someone else from being someone who is already poorer than you. Its just how the system works. The more money you have, the easier it is to keep it, so anyone getting wealthier, even just climbing out of lower class is therefore indirectly pulling the ladder behind them without even knowing it. Capitalism is built upon ladder pulling.
