      It’s built into the system on purpose. Keep your resources limited to what you can scrounge yourself so you have to choose between if you feed your body or your mind.

      If you feed your body you live long enough to be used by the system you’re not cognizant enough to subvert.

      If you feed your mind you’ll be able to subvert the system but won’t have the resources to make any changes.

      And if you’re lucky enough to be blessed with the conditions that allow you to feed both, chances are you look back at those who can’t and choose to not let that ever happen to you, and you become the system, willing to hoard for yourself and deny others the ability to feed both their body and mind.
