Why Does Atheism and Left-Wing Politics Usually Go Together?

I Have a problem with your argument. The difficulty I have with the above is that a group of people with money can rig the market so that mealy by having money they are in a position to assign rewards, and as such even those who do very little can be in a position to receive disproportionate rewards. So that by attaining a curtain level of wealth, can put a person in a position where in most circumstances they are unable to loose that wealth. This creates it seems to me 'a have, have not system' of rigged markets which will be constantly driven by internal division.
