Transcription

Capitalism explained in Minecraft. Steve bakes bread. He sells it at the market and gets five emeralds. Steve is happy.

He bakes more bread but cannot keep up. He hires a villager to help. The villager bakes bread. Steve sells it. Steve keeps most of the emeralds and gives the villager only a few.

The villager says, "Can I have more emeralds?" Steve says, "No, too expensive."

While Steve builds a giant house made of gold blocks, the villager is very tired. Steve says, "Work harder, hustle, grind." More villagers join. They do all the farming. Steve builds a huge emerald empire, but the villagers still cannot afford their own bread.

The villagers ask, "Why, Steve, all the emeralds? We take the bread." Steve says, "I take the risk. I own the farm. I deserve the emeralds."

The villagers start their own bread stall, but Steve owns the whole village. Steve charges high rent. The villagers' stalls fail. A few thieves get many emeralds. Most villagers get dirt. The system is built so it stays that way. Capitalism is not broken. It works exactly as designed.
