Allan Boesak: There was a time when people of the rich nations of the world regarded poverty as a "natural condition" for those living in the poor nations of the world. ...

We know that poverty and unemployment are not just accidents of history but deliberate, even indispensable, components of capitalism as an economic system. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote4265
