Development is what increases education abilities, not necessarily wealth or Capitalism. It's correct that a side-effect of Capitalism is development, but it's also true that a side-effect of Capitalism is increased wealth concentration and disparity, rather than equitable distribution of resources.

The fact that education increases in spite of Capitalism, rather than because of it, shouldn't be a point in Capitalism's favor.
