“Poverty shouldn’t exist” or “unemployment shouldn’t exist” is much better rhetoric than “billionaires shouldn’t exist.” It’s positively framed instead of antagonizing. 

And that’s exactly why nobody ever says those things.

the reason they don’t say it that way is because it would be an implicit argument *for* capitalism when you look at the data for how many people have been lifted out of poverty in the last few decades

You don't think socialist or communist countries can have markets? They are economic and political systems, of course they have markets.

china and india's turn toward market-based economies is extremely well documented

Many more were brought out of poverty by socialism or communism than capitalist countries so that doesn't make sense
