  1. Capitalism creates generational poverty.

  2. Generational poverty breeds desperation.

  3. Desperation leads to self-destructive behaviors, broken families, fractured communities, isolation, crime, child abuse, etc.

  4. Capitalism creates prisons, nonprofit industrial complex, big pharm, etc. to profit from the desperation.

It's a never-ending cycle.

"Capitalism breeds innovation!!"

The innovation:

  1. Capitalism creates prisons, nonprofit industrial complex, big pharm etc to profit from the desperation (and captures governments to ensure focus is placed on increasing the profitability of these ventures)
