That is still a shit ton of people living in misery, and that only takes into account the most extreme of poverty. Further, the decline of people in poverty has nothing to do with capitalism becoming more benevolent as a system, and everything to do with increases in technological level/capacity, education and improved standards medical care - things we can obtain WITHOUT capitalism. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, poverty is far from being the only of capitalisms problems.
You see, this question itself is very telling of the bourgeois thought process. The answer is, we wouldn't need (or desire) to rule at all. Humans are largely a cooperative rather than competitive species. Only under capitalism do people get divided into classes where someone has to be ruled and exploited, where goods/services are produced on a market as commodities rather than as things for human need. And such a system of course, can only be upheld by means of violence and State force.
Yep, you got us all figured out. Our goals align with those of ISIS. Spread the word comrades, its time to join ISIS! Therein lies the secret to finally overthrowing the capitalist oligarchs!

"Your very ideas are but the outgrowth of conditions of your bourgeois production and bourgeois property, just as your jurisprudence is but the will of your class, made into law for all, a will whose essential character and direction are determined by the economic conditions of the existence of your class." - Marx (addressing the bourgeois)
