So, the key word is ETHICS. Even in evolution inequity has to exist and some will win and some will lose.
How you get to the top of the heap is just as important as getting there.
There is a huge difference between being a business owner who treats their employees well and values the community. But when you look at the sweat shops of China, that is no less a monopoly than the monopoly that started the British Monarchy thousands of years ago.
I don't mind someone making money off my labor. I do mind if they squeeze me out of being able to live. It is worse when you have one family or one political party, or one class doing that.
Otherwise the statement you made would justify slavery. White people made money off the backs of slave labor.
