You have it backwards: an author who argues that "[p]overty is the default human condition" is not simultaneously arguing that capitalism is a sugar-daddy.

I think you took his analogy in the beginning one or two steps too far.

But they are poor because they are impoverished in what they value! LOL!

Please see the title of the article, the author is arguing that capitalism is some sort of Mother...

These tiresome authors complain Americans don’t know what’s good for them, and only they should be able to tell us what it is we should have. They are the nanny statists.
