Capitalism produces scarcity artificially where there is none.

There are enough houses.

There is enough food (in fact there’s currently massive amounts of “overproduced” grain being left to rot)

There is enough water.

Even without changing the horribly designed production systems, there is no real shortage.  People don’t starve, have no fresh water, have no houses to live in, etc. because there are not enough of these things.  People don’t have access because capitalism denies them it.

There’s enough to share for everyone.  It’s not a zero sum game for poor and oppressed peoples. 

but the violence that protects it. 

nike cutting up shoes, clothing shredded, dumping tons of food away, expiration dates (that are mostly to have a justification to throw away food -> couldve just been given away instead), etc.

if an employee tries to just take the shoes instead of destroying them for personal enjoyment or donation then they wouldve been fired and arrested for stealing property.

if an employee eats food at the job or takes food that was supposed to be thrown away home or to donate they can be fired and arrested.

if a homeless person sleeps in a vacant house, they can be arrested. hell a homeless person could be out in the fucking cold in winter and capital would rather them die in the street than sleep in their buildings all protected by cops on the behest of property owners.

this is why cops are bastards. they always serve the interests of capital before the people, property is theft, and how capitalism is violence
