Under capitalism, only 1% of people can be part of the top 1%. Embrace socialism, where 100% of people can be part of the top 1%.

Are you saying America being a capitalist country is a failure where as socialist countries are more successful?

Only 1% of people are part of the top 1%. I'd call that a failure.

Capitalism is doomed to fail because it adheres to the rules of mathematics?

There are more successful billionaires in America than any other country. Proof that capitalism works.

Socialist economies don't follow math, so they aren't limited by it.

Exactly. Math is relative, just like space and time.

Socialism.

Unworkable utopic dream, doomed to failure.

People are not equal.

Time and space are.

And everything is relative to time and space.

USA has greatest number of migrants in the world.

USA is the most desirable country to live in.

But not for Elon Musk's daughter who said she will leave USA due to transphobia.

Why did Einstein leave Germany?
Albert Einstein emigrated from Germany to the United States in 1933, primarily due to the rise of the Nazi regime and the increasing persecution of Jews. Several key factors influenced his decision: Anti-Semitism: The Nazi Party, which came to power in January 1933, promoted virulent anti-Semitic policies.
That is why Einstein chose America a capitalist country country.

What are Einstein's critiques of capitalism?
Einstein predicted that under such a capitalist society, political parties and politicians would be corrupted by financial contributions made by owners of large capital amounts, and the system "cannot be effectively checked even by a democratically organized political society".

Question:

Can something be more better than better?

The sentence should read "Can something be  much better than he is." "More better" is not grammatical.

If 100% can be in the top 1%, then yes, something can be more better than better, in fact, 1% can be the betterest.

Two grammatical mistakes don’t make a right.

"Perhaps not, but don't forget that most men with nothing would rather protect the possibility of becoming rich, than face the reality of being poor."
John Dickinson
1776 - "Cool, Considerate Men" (1972 Film Clip)

I don't 'hate the idea of a socialist society, I think both Capitalism and Socialism are functioning concepts,
That a combination are often helpful to nations.

I like independence and less Federal Government,
But I think nations can have a hard time functioning without some Socialism, taxes, military.

What you see is a compromise.
