Why The Left Loves Poverty

In my home country, Italy, there’s this myth about tire shop owners going around at night slashing tires to create more customers. Although I wouldn’t put it below my compatriots morals, I’m quite confident it’s just a myth.

However, the concept of creating your own customers it’s actually very useful in analyzing political ideologies.

The main selling point of the Left is to help the poors, the victims, the last, the disadvantaged. And reliably so, those people have been voting leftist politicians for decades.
