Human experience has been almost entirely privatized. If you're poor, you're denied most of it.

What do you mean by that? Go find a sport/hobby. Clubs aren't expensive at all.

Human experience isn't just hanging out with other people. It includes going to other places, experiencing what the world has to offer. You can't do much of that, if any, when you're living paycheck to paycheck like most people.

In social countries, they give you money for hobbies if you have low salaries.

Holy shit. One more little reason to hope the civil war comes quickly so I can flee as a refugee to a semi-civilized country.

Are non-profit associations rare in your place? They are very present around me, all my hobbies are covered.
