Hesed Ojieh argues that liquor stores, lottery outlets, and payday lenders are deliberately concentrated in poor neighborhoods to extract wealth from residents. These businesses are absent in rich areas, he says, creating a system designed to keep people trapped in poverty.
You have to know how the system works. You have to know how the system works, and I'm going to reveal this to you. It's prophetic, it's diabolical. I'm telling you, if you're poor, if you're poor and you live in poverty neighborhood, poverty dominated places, and you shop only within poverty systems, shops that are poor, then by design, by design, you are functioning as an economic ecosystem that makes someone else rich. I'm going to break it down. You will never find the 3 things you will never find in wealthy neighborhoods. 3 things you don't see in wealthy neighborhoods. I've driven around, I'm surrounded by wealthy neighborhoods. You don't see liquor stores. There's no liquor store around here. There's no lottery stores around here. There's no payday lenders. You put your titles to get a loan. You're going there to get some money. You want cash in, checking, cash in money. You don't see it. If you live in a neighborhood that has 3 of this It is clear, and it's a clear sign that that area was designed for people to extract from you. The liquor store, the lottery, and the payday loan places, they are ecosystems, they are matrix that is making somebody rich. I need you to hear me.
