universal progress

All talk of the progress of capitalism is really only confirmed by the example of the 15-25% of the world's central population and its enclaves on the periphery. The 75-85% of the population is excluded from this progress, which is an immanent feature of the capitalist system as a zero-sum game: the progress of the minority is at the expense and expense of the majority. The universal (for all) progress of capitalism is therefore a myth.
