    That’s just human nature unfortunately. We like to help one another and hate to see another human being suffering because we know that could be us. But capitalism has conditioned and limited us out of our human nature to help one another, because either there is no profit in helping the poor or destitute, or we lack the means to help.

      That’s such a wide eyed idealistic view of the world. Let’s all come together and sing kumbaya.

      All people throughout history have always tried to just help each other out, right?

        Depends on the dominant Mode of Production, actually. People are shaped by their environment.
