Gates and Warren Buffets of this world are the small exception to that
greed. The rich get richer and the poor (including the middle class)
get poorer. At what point do the bottom dwellers get fed up and decide
to take action?

They won't, why? because they aren't taking action now to improve
themselves. They aren't staying in school, away from drugs, and
avoiding pregnancies that they can't possibly support.

....maybe you should examine this negative attitude you have against
the poor. It sounds like you have a specific group in mind. I
encourage you to take a more global view...
