(Since the poors usually have more children for some reason(, only a small difference in France though, it'd even be way smaller without counting the poor immigrants), )It could (also )be a bit more like "Why don't anyone buy my products ?" on the right.
But, you don't understand : because of competition, capitalists will have to cut their profits to almost nothing in order to stay "in the game". If they give themselves dividends, and top executives a higher salary than needed, then they'll have to raise their prices, and hence disappear for their greed will have been countered by the need to stay efficient/competitive.
They'd still need to make some profit, but only for what is beneficial to their survival, e.g., for r&d and better machines. As for the rest, competition will ensure that the passive incomes and surplus value disappear, leading to the lowest expenses for every actor of the ladder(, suppliers, workers, ...), thus obtaining the lowest possible expenses&prices instead of the highest possible surplus value, because free markets work in theory and in practice. Hurray for neo-liberalism, at home and abroad.

The taxes of the state are fortunately less heavy for the poors than the taxes of the capitalists.)
