> The idea that in capitalist countries citizens would be left to die and starve requires a great exercise of imagination

How about dying from rare cancers due for living near superfund sites, or from opioid-related ODs?

Opiod-related ODs have increased as the market has become more regulated and since the war against poverty started. I don't see evidence of these being caused by capitalism, if anything I see a correlation with socialism.
