Since a capitalist social system creates political equality by limiting the role of government, rights-violating taxation, redistribution, and regulation are banned. People banding together in collectives or groups to seek political advantages by violating the individual rights of others don’t have a way to achieve their agenda. And without these options, politicians don’t have anything to gain by campaigning on collectivist slogans appealing to our envy. Consequently, envy becomes politically impotent under capitalism, and does not influence the degree of control you have over your life.
