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.
