After reading this several times, I think the point being made here can broadly be summed up as:
Capitalism is bad because it relies on self-interest (why?), and the size of the bad is measured by the amount of people involved in it (why?). Helping people means they’re more likely to both reproduce and be grateful to capitalism in a way that makes them want to preserve the status quo, ergo we ought not help people, because if we do, we will create more capitalist sycophants.
If I’ve misunderstood you, then it’s because you aren’t writing simply.
If I haven’t misunderstood you, then I find the lack of a suggested alternative irreparably damaging to the claim made.
