I earlier posted a thread that i called money and in that thread i talked about how bad money is, later on i have come to the conclusion that money is not as evil as i portraied it but its the way some people use it that is very stupid.
Money was originally created as a means to keep a standard of value for goods & services from region to region. The concept is great, it is GREED that is the true culprit. Even without money, you can have greed. Once caring has become more powerful than greed, we can move ahead.
It does not stop there .. its not just materialism .. its also is a negative when we dont "place value" on the simple things as well ...and the things that dont cost ...that is when we have a problem with materialism ... become addicted .. its also when we pay for sex/activity.. lol ..but that is another topic .. greed n lust .. always end in dust .................
you are so right .. but I guess it doesnt hurt to empower a person with the thought and knowledge that they can choose to do the right thing .....hope for the best ...expect the worst ...
