    Money is the fountain of youth in this country. Can you imagine if the US had universal Heathcare like every other developed nation in the world? The Proles might live as long as the elites and we can’t have that now, can we?

      I mean, the snark is absolutely warranted but for anyone who’s not clear - yeah. That’s the whole idea. Poor people die working cheaply, then the next crop who don’t know shit yet get promoted and continue happily working for cheap. Capitalism is inherently built to fail in just this way. It’s better than some alternatives, i.e. monarchy, but the end stages are just - this - over and over. No healthcare, more guns.
