“I felt blessed because I was working during an extremely difficult time, when many people were out of work,”

This fucking system. If the choice stands between poisoning and death, then the system needs to fucking go and be replaced by something else. There is nothing standing in the way of a more equitable form of society except the would-be nobility's dreams of being the rulers of a neo-feudal society, that's it.

We have the plans, we have the means, we have the resources, we have the need and the will, the only thing standing in our way is the landed elite, and they will not go without violence.

And go they MUST.
