    No you don’t understand, this is exactly how capitalism is supposed to work! Once you get rich enough (and everybody gets rich under capitalism, that’s the beauty of it!) then you can spend as much money you want on things like “helping the poor”, and “food”, and since everyone becomes richer under capitalism, it’s inevitable that the poor will get rich, just like you will be one day! So skip the donating part, invest in stocks, and then when YOU are back on your feet, THEN you can help the poor, so that they TOO can get back on their feet! It’s the perfect system, as long as you don’t donate your money!
