      We didn’t choose the system. I wasn’t handed a ballot when I was born, were you? Capitalism developed in specific historic and material conditions not by popular choice but by the logical consequences of those conditions.

        No, but I have a sense of responsibility greater than just my personal needs. I can conceptualize problems that I didn’t create, are still ones that I’m responsible for dealing with.
