Which is only true because of the greed that most people feel towards their own.
Essentially shits only expensive because enough people just go “fuck you I’ve got mine” despite having more than they’ll ever need let alone use in their lifetime.
The phrase “enough people” is doing a lot of work in that sentence. “Enough” is a very small percentage of the population, only given outsized power due to our political and economic systems - systems which can be changed to disincentivise that behaviour and dissolve that power.
This view only makes sense if the basic necessities for life were actually affordable for most people, which is completely untrue
