Every poor moron thinks that one day they will get rich and they don’t want to ruin things for their future rich self. The don’t actually DO anything to get rich, they don’t have a plan, resources, much intelligence, they’re not doing anything to improve their life, go to school, seek a better job, learn about finances. But one day, they’ll be rich. They believe this until they get to about 50-60, their health issues start creeping up, then it starts to dawn on them that they’re over the hill and have no real future beyond the current state of affairs–same life, but just older, sicker and weaker. THEN they sometimes wake up and see the bullshit, but it’s too late.
Some of these people pick up a modest inheritance from their dead parents, but they usually piss it away in a few years, certainly aren’t going to invest it, use it to build anything or have any expectation of creating generational wealth. They buy a big pickup truck and some assorted stupid shit, and it’s wasted in a flash.
Let me fix that for you,
Citizen 1: I can get behind that.
Capitalists: You shouldn’t, that’s communism! Think of all the money you have to waste when you get rich!
And that’s the core of it.

The other core is “I’d rather die of preventable diseases so long as black people suffer more”
