Sure, but if you’re eating crap because your budget only affords crap, then your health takes a nose dive — when a pay raise could’ve corrected this, the wealth doesn’t seem innocent.

...what? You're just making the point further. If you don't have wealth, you can't have health. The allegory goes both ways. Take care of yourself, and you'll do better, but if you're in a hole that can be hard to do.

I'm curious what you read out of my comment.

Because, to disassemble the prose, my comment equates "health" and "wealth" so that the following desire to "make oligarchs less wealthy" would naturally equate to "make oligarchs less healthy." The implication being exacting some amount of violence on oligarchs.
