Capitalism does not depend upon self-sufficiency. This sounds like total nonsense. In fact, the obviousness of comparative advantage and the benefits of trade that are common among market economies clearly illustrate that interdependence is a crucial aspect of capitalist societies. In fact, self-sufficiency is a characteristic of socialist groups - all of whom want to run their own farm with their own this and that. Similarly the socialist and communist nations wanted to wall themselves off so that they only produce for themselves inside their borders what they want and so on.

Also what's all this about the body that never breaks. We have insurance schemes because there is uncertainty about the human body. What are annuities? Contract law allows for exemptions for acts of god like if a hurricane hits you.

Listen, this person's life sucks. And it's important that society not abandon them. But that doesn't mean they can talk nonsense. This kind of suffering theology where we believe someone whose life is hard has access to some deep truth has no basis in reality. In fact, I'd argue that their thought is far more likely to be disordered.
