Because a good chunk of people suck at delayed gratification so are incapable of saving money. Even on an average income it's not unfeasible to retire a millionaire if saving a significant percent (and indeed there are people who do this, small businesspeople and tradespeople, the "millionaires next door").

When people are incapable of something, it isn't feasible for them. It doesn't really matter why "everyone getting rich" doesn't work.
