In a capitalist society that doesn't respect human rights, like the USA this may happen.

It also happens in poor societies that can't afford to enforce these rights.

But there are countries out there which strive to uphold these rights, no matter if one affords to pay for various services or not.




I wouldn't call those capitalist, I think. Perhaps market socialist.
