Agrias is such a weird choice for this meme, if we're thinking about FFT characters and what they represent. She's a holy knight, a royal bodyguard, noble in all senses of the word. Maybe she thinks the power structure should serve good ends, but she's very much a part of that structure.
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.
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.
...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.

That's a cropped pic of Agrias from Final Fantasy Tactics.

And Milleuda is right there.

Absolutely, she's like the poster child of faithful dog of the church and only breaks to become an ally when being hunted down by her betrayers.
I have such a hard time bringing myself to kill her. She's got good points while Algus calls her chattel. Such a strong "Are we the baddies?" scene.

Well she does become an outlaw and rebels against that power structure.

"Health is wealth."
And we're trying to make oligarchs much less wealthy.

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

I have a car. Does that mean I'm wealthy?

Not unless you have ten you don't drive and at least one modest yacht. Until then you're still using that clunker to get to work
