Not really. Has nothing to do with "capitalism" or "success". You're defining "success" backwards, based upon where the cap is now. That's not very logical. The vast majority of people pay out of every dollar they earn. The cap is arbitrary. No reason not to move it up a little.

Move it up a little, especially on people that will hardly notice it, versus people where it will make a life-impacting change, and everyone - including them - benefits greatly.
