Don't forget that not only the smartest people will be rewarded, but also the most persons with rich parents & luck will be.
You cannot make another post so soon after your last.
The wealth of a child's parents is only an enabling factor. It does not entirely dictate their success in life under a capitalist system. Capitalism gives everyone an equal opportunity to succeed, given they put forth the effort and know how to use the system to their advantage. In a way you could say this is giving the smartest people an advantage, but if you are not educated enough then you are at fault -- not the system. Even the poorest of the poor have access to educational resources, and with enough drive they can work their way to the top of the system. However, this rarely ever seems to be the case because of the attitudes and lifestyles associated with that class.

Yes Indeed, you must be a clever, masterfull and educated Oracle of deceit to be succesfull within a Capitalist system. Candidates must be well seasoned and practiced in the black art's of brainwashing, disinformation, economics (inclusive of the taxation process) and control which are all crucial/critical elements in a successfull Democratic, Capitilastic society. The implementation of fear is also mandatory in order to gain and indeed retain this control.
However I must admit that there does exists out there a few fundamentally sound and truthfull thinkers who navigate Capitalism with a profound vigor for positivity, truthfullness and the greater cause. I prefer a Society and a world based on Truth
"In order to grasp the truth, you must use your free will and freedom of thought. Do not let your mind get trapped within the religious or scientific paradigms. Religion and science are simply forms of control that were created by the ruling elite long before you were born. And thus, it is a shame that after being born on this planet, you were raised on either of those two lies.
Naturally, since you have been lied to about reality your entire life, any truthful revelations contradicting your false worldview may indeed appear to be far-fetched. But, to make things even worse, human beings are stubborn creatures who let their egos override everything else: Instead of learning about new information that does not fit within your current worldview, you would rather exercise your ego by letting others know what is and is not possible, merely based upon your personal knowledge and feeble understanding of what actually exists."
"The spirit of inquiry, the search for greater truth beyond religion and science, the profound seriousness of doing real thinking, philosophy and ontology – these are almost totally lacking in humanity. Humanity is therefore subhuman from lack of genuine intelligence....they automatically reject any emergent facts or realities that do not fit their brain dead cognitive pattern of belief and disbelief. They watch too much television" (Gabriel Chiron, "Truth is Greater Than Man").
