Is capitalism responsible for the adulteration of products?

definition
"We are all responsible for the adulteration of products; it thrives in a system of scarcity and inefficiency, where moral outrage alone cannot heal the wounds of our collective survival instincts."
According to Osho, capitalism isn’t to blame for adulteration; we all are. Cheating thrives where scarcity, inefficiency, and sentimental hypocrisy replace rational management. Mixing water into milk is a survival device in a system with too many mouths and too little supply. Moral outrage fixes nothing; only addressing root causes—productivity, selective breeding, proper care, and realistic policies—reduces adulteration and restores integrity.
It’s not capitalism; when there isn’t enough to go around, people dilute things to cope—so fix shortages and systems, not just the symptom.
Why this matters practically
- Shift from blame to personal and collective responsibility.
- Attack root causes—increase supply, efficiency, and honest systems—so cheating becomes unnecessary.
- Replace empty sentiment with compassionate, practical care (e.g., better husbandry instead of mere worship).
