>>You miss and misunderstand much when you only dig down to bumper sticker slogan depths in this subject. That phrase you cite, keep reading. It has many more words and a much wider teaching which doesn't ultimately mean what you think it means.
This is descending into junk science about people or code which is no great help for anybody. Lets stick to the knitting.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
