I would say those in A are not poor, B is poverty and C is greed. I disagree that B and C are the same. I was poor years ago yet at some point I came to have enough and became satisfied with my level of abundance. We each have a different balance of red-ray that we consider to be balanced for ourselves.
What we can solve now in our current post-scarcity society is B. What bugles my mind is not that STS wants the status-quo, it's the number of people that let themselves fall for C greed (based on STS teachings). So in that sense we are not really victims, those falling for greed in one incarnation, probably suffers poverty in the next and on it goes.
But at the end of the day, it's still on us. People can feel the truth of this in their heart and if they chose greed nonetheless well that just opens the door even more for STS to come teach and we end up with how society was in the not too distant past. It's getting better now, but it could go much faster.
