Official views of reality often mystify the causes and solutions of social problems. Capitalism has affected society far beyond just the economic system. It has affected our values, our beliefs, our politics, our personal relationships, our behaviors in essence, our strategies for living. Because human beings make institutions, they should be changed whenever they do not meet the needs of the people they were created to serve. Individuals can make a difference through collective action and be agents of social change.
Social problems are social.
Social problems and inequality are created by design.
