4. Brutal Capitalism favors the people with resources and punishes the resourceless

And who has less resources than much of the black communities in America?

Brutal Capitalism is promoted by the rich and the corporations for their own benefit.

Artificial scarcity promoted by big corporations encourages racism when whites have to compete with hispanics and blacks for jobs.


Oh, and how about big corporations now using prison labor, paying black inmates only cents an hour? The war on drugs has not only sent lots of blacks to prison, but have made them a resource for essentially slave labor.
