In market economics capital accumulation trends towards monopolization as people with more capital can outcompete their competitor not through merit but raw economic force. A sufficiently rich firm can run at a loss, pay agents to commit espionage, or even outright buy the competition. These are but a few of many unsavory methods that have nothing to do with efficiency or the quality of the product/service. Eventually the people--and later corporations--with the most capital start using that influence to impact governance and pay off the state itself, making the state nothing more than a corporate arm of the oligarchy. In this way capitalism trends towards monopolization of markets and authoritarian governments. In short, the idea of a "free" market is in contradiction with itself because the market will eventually encroach on its own freedoms.

You don't seem to understand that the rich only take risks of comfort but the workers take risks on their life. The reward either gets is not proportional and as explained before the rich don't generate their own value they are parasitic. (Before some retard responds with an emotional one liner read the whole comment chain.)

Hello cold war propaganda. It's a process, don't act like the transition from feudalism to capitalism was peaceful because it wasn't. I don't condone wantonly killing people, even the rich. But what the crowd does no one has control over and that unrest is inevitable when the rich ignore growing systemic problems.
