I’m tired, but I’ll try to answer this.

The comments that say they don’t have skills are wrong. Work, even unskilled work, can produce a lot of value. They just aren’t being paid their fair share.

Companies and people want to make as much money as possible, and there is never enough. They are never satisfied. So they want to pay people as little as possible. They also want lots of starving poor people desperate for money.

This is capitalism. A few rich people, and loads of poor starving people. Add a destroyed planet for good measure.
