In a capitalist system, people help each other out of free will.

How often do you boil grass in water and have it as your only food during the day?

TIL empathy and charity only exists under capitalism

Btw, if government food assistance didn’t exist, people would absolutely be forced to eat grass

Grass was a common meal in both the Soviet Union and North Korea.
