And the poorest people in your country have contributed by doing those jobs. They are the ones who are putting in the time and effort creating this wealth, all of which goes to the 'creator' who graciously doles out a tiny fraction of it to those who made it for him.
I don't know how it is where you live, but in America, the corporatist mindset perpetuated by conservatives is that workers deserve none of what we get, and so should be eternally grateful for the generosity of the benevolent 'job creators'.
This is, of course, not how they always thought. 150 years ago, the conservative mindset was that having black skin meant you didn't deserve anything at all, and 120 years ago, the conservative mindset was that having white skin meant that you deserved virtually nothing at all. And they'd do it today if they could get away with it.
