The reality of the situation is that capitalism has allowed a small few (globally a few thousand out of 7.5B people) the ability to amass mountains of wealth. If this system allowed for the fair distribution of that wealth to the masses, and the masses had their material needs met through this distribution, there would be some type of equilibrium met, and the contradiction of Greed v. Need could be resolved.
Unfortunately billions of people are in poverty, and do not have what they need. They're being exploited by these few wealthy individuals, and by the folks that lift up this capitalist system. So the wealthy landowners, and industrialists, and the corporate executives that claim to have "earned their wealth" have done so by exploiting thousands>>millions of people. And the folks that claim to deserve their wealth because it was part of their inheritance, are sitting upon a mountain of gold stolen from others before them.
There is a resolution to the contradiction in our system, but the resolution comes outside of capitalism. It comes from the working class, lead by BIPOC, taking back the means and fruits of their labor. Yes us working class are the engine that drives our global economy, but we're not the controllers of that engine, nor are we the benefactors of its gains. That must change.
