one of the most moving, poignant and couragious pieces of writing I have ever read: I am not, for all my frustration, opposed to capitalism. Most westerners, poor ones included, aren’t. We like the idea that anyone can succeed. What I am opposed to is the sort of capitalism that sucks the life out of a whole bunch of the citizenry and then demands that they do better with whatever they have left. If we could just agree that poor people are doing the necessary grunt work and that there is dignity in that too, we’d be able to make it less onerous. theguardian/society/2014/sep/21/linda-tirado-poverty-hand-to-mouth-extract
