Ukit,
Sorry but this decade of economics was no where near free market / libertarian. Greenspan completely toyed with the interest rates.. which I'd argue is a key cog in economic systems, that's Keynesian. What do you see happening with the interest rates now? Yeah, they're still being molested. How exactly do you think that the last decade was representative of free market??
'but unless you point to actual facts' is that how you came to your conclusion of 'one in a million can become rich'? Look, I've known lot's of people who have money, not a single one of them actually started off with money. I know that's probably an anomaly since I'm sure a majority of people who are considered 'wealthy' probably started off with some sort of familial financial reserves. The problem I have is that some of you seem to think you're locked into your socioeconomic position and that is simply false. The funny thing to me is that the people who seem so locked into that theory are constant posters on this site. I work 8 - 10 hours a day while you guys post 8 - 10 hours a day... do the math.
