He did make it (if this is actually a free market). And the workers can also make capital by the simple act of spending less than they earn. If this is a lawful society (strong property rights, however enforced) with free market competition, the only way Mr. 1% can make capital is also by spending less than he earns.

Of course, we know that Mr. 1% in reality is just a fake, crony capitalist. His "wealth" is primarily due to the benefits of rent-seeking, whether direct (lobbying, subsidies) or indirect (anti-competitive regulation, protectionism, etc.) The cure is actual free market, not socialism (which is just peak cronyism).
