His exception to the rule, that being inheritence, make up 99% of the people in the 1%. There is fuck all upward mobility even for the so called "geniuses." All tech guys and businessmen either get that way through connections or nepotism. Ergo, even if he thinks 99% of people aren't driven, capitalism doesn't work the way he says.
For his "The best have to be given the fair share" I'd point out that the researchers and engineers who make the shit are often vastly poorer than their bosses who sell it. Edison got rich and is credited with many inventions but he just hired a bunch of people to do it. The "Best" in their case got a basic salary while the businessman got filthy rich. Even if you need to reward "the best" with monetary measures, capitalism still sucks Donkey Dick.
Also don't listen to the nerds suggesting the bullet. Some people can be good people but have shitty opinions. There's no reason to go scorched earth when there's no revolution even close to coming.
