You think you're rebelling against wealth and capitalism but you're actually just affirming it by reinforcing the idea that people get the empathy they deserve

You think you're rebelling against wealth and capitalism but you're actually just affirming it by reinforcing the idea that people get the empathy they deserve based on their financial decisions. You have no idea what circumstances led, for example the 76 year old senior to move to the area 23 years ago. Maybe he did his due diligence. Due diligence (and government assurances) can also be wrong. Attaching your compassion to someone's financial status is gross.
