The sufferings of humans in the lower levels in the cast, class, race systems

“The more a person needs to be right, the less certain he is...”
Title couldn’t say it all.
The sufferings of humans in the lower levels in the cast, class, race systems throughout almost endless time is irreconcilable with the existence of a creator of 'unbounded' goodness.

“It is the sufferings of the many which pay for the luxuries of the few.”
I hope you empathize with the reality that we live in a society that operates on unjust systems, a culture where if you're not part of the in-group — be it class, race or gender — your opportunities are fewer, your life is harder, and you'll want to change that oppressive and unjust system.
In America, business profits in our system are in most cases result of collusion, history shows that big business and big government can collude to keep profits flowing to the former and contributions flowing to the latter.
Some in the system will benefit from this criminal form of profit and will defend the system because of it.
Nobody in their right mind would believe that the large fortunes and opulence of Robber Barons, Fat Cats, Capitalist Pigs etc. can be attained just by being an honest hard working person.
“Behind every great fortune is an equally great crime” ~ Balzac.
“Every penny is sticky with sweat and blood.”

The numbers don’t lie, the majority of rich people have not always acted within the four corners of the law. For the powerful, crimes are those that others commit.
Workers need to organize to combat exploitation by the wealthy / upper classes. The establishment had been fighting this for decades. Wake up - the time for workers is now!
Most profits are, in general, explained by one or more of three factors: luck, efficiency, and collusion.
While it is difficult to regard luck as a crime, luck does not reflect merit.
Profits due to efficiency seem like the least problematic case, and collusion seems the clearest case of when fortune coincides with crime.
A variety of cases lie, at least in a dynamic sense, at the intersection of the three conditions.
Unfortunately, history suggests that big business and big government can collude to keep profits flowing to the former and contributions flowing to the latter.
While luck and efficiency may help initiate wealth, the system tolerates connivance, making Balzac’s statement more plausible than it ought to be.
But I digress because on May 13th you wrote:

“You should decide whether something makes sense by its content, not by the person who says it, regardless of the letters after his name or his title or position in society.”
You are welcome,
