Meaning
This reads as a comment on inequality built into ordinary finance, where money costs more precisely for the people who have the least of it. It points to a system that charges vulnerability for risk, and can land sharply for anyone comparing offers for loans, mortgages, or cards and finding the same pattern repeated.
