>It is currently more profitable to have very large sums of capital itself (and invest this in other capital, financial instruments etc), than to work, no matter how hard you work.

And why would "how hard you work" play any role?
A surgeon doing 20 hour shifts gets way untold times less money than e.g. Tim Cook or some absentee CEO -- as their pay, not as their returns from capital investments.
And let's not compare a miner who risks their life (and lungs) underground with some cushy executive.
