In truth, many of the wealthiest appearing out of Russia and China probably have rampant corruption to thank for their billions, not a true "capitalism success story."
Not to a conspiracy theory rant, as those start off unintelligent, and are driven by emotion and a very uninformed view of history. So no, nothing to add, since nothing would penetrate the paranoid fantasy you have.
Do you even know what a conspiracy is? People conspire for power and money constantly. So you deny US Government involvement with Hussein, Pinochet? You deny that third world countries are indebted to the world bank and IMF? You deny that corporations exploit third world countries for their natural resources?
Wow, you sure have your head buried in the sand. Let me know when you wake up and we can continue the conversation.
Look at history. The railroads build by the rich gave way to a prosperous country.
the railroads were built by ethnic immigrant laborers

I neither confirm nor deny that rantings of a conspiracy theorist because that has the off chance of legitimizing the discussion is some way. Won't do that. Suffice it to say that actual history is far more complex and complex than your bumper sticker slogans, and as you have chosen to thus far remain largely ignorant of all that history and instead suffice with bumper stickers, I have neither the time nor inclination to educate you.
But I will say this as a hint for you, should you ever choose to increase your knowledge - consider a nation's history of property right protections over any long period of time, and see how the concept of property rights plays to the division between 1st, 2nd and 3rd World nations.

Jokes on them, I don't participate in the money economy. I will ascend. My bank account is currently fraudulent, and I'm loving every second of it.

The railroads - in particular the transcontinental lines - were massively sponsored by government land grants and government backing of their bonds.
