>Rich people aren’t rich because poor people are poor.
Uh yes they are, your nation produces product and money is literally the determination of how that product is distributed. The grocery store doesn't give away it's food for free if no one is there to buy it, they destroy the food. The wealthy have been amassing a bigger and bigger share of the product by leveraging their existing wealth.
>There aren’t enough rich people to rent all the apartments, or drive all the cars, or buy all the food, cosmetics, etc.
Things that cost money to own will get repriced, assets that are unproductive or bought on credit. Other things will just go unused, there's tons of commercial property and land that sits empty forever because the price inflates with time.
>What happens when the entirety of the poor stop buying stuff from corporations, go full informal mode, build favelas, and technically drop out of the economy altogether?
Will not be allowed to happen, the system is expanding more and more and you can't live unless you are integrated with it. You need a bank account, you need credit, you need a phone, you need email. The system uses the threat of violence to push you around until you are a part of it.
