I have started to see capitalism as a system which runs off of taking your happiness, or more like, your ability to make yourself happy. Under capitalism, money comodifies your ability to live happily and contently. What makes each person happy and content may differ but in the end money is really what drives your ability to obtain it. The capitalists goal isn’t just to take all of your money, it’s to take everything that can make you happy. They are like dragons from D&D. They are greed incarnate. If one of them actually had all the money in the world, they would want your shoes, your clothes, your food, the little stick hut you made yourself in the woods, whatever you might have that brings you some semblance of a better existence. Whatever brings you some happiness. Its not even about OWNING everything, it’s about TAKING everything, and happiness is something else they can take. All you have to do is look how they view happy poor people. They find it revolting. Normal people will always look for ways to be happy, even when they have nothing, and to the capitalist it just shows them that they “missed a spot.” If they can’t take a poor person’s happiness then they can’t take everything from them.
