A 'dollar' is simply an expression of value.
Every -honest- wealthy person recieves their money by providing value to others.
So wealthy MUST seperate themselves from the chronically poor unless they want to become poor. The poor blame the rich, but really they don't want a rich person hanging out with them either. Because they get intimidated and angry that they wont pander to their self pity. |
Attitudes like this are typical of Americans:
Typical of the atrocious IGNORANCE of our own financial system.
Pathological envy of MONEY and what it can buy.
Complete DISREGARD for the plight of the masses.
The truth
Money has nothing to do with value. Money is a debt instrument. It is the mirror image of debt. If someone has a positive monetary balance, someone else has a negative balance. And no amount of hard work, positive thinking, or "value" can change that. It's just how the system works.
MONEY is not WEALTH. In fact, it's usually just the opposite. Activities that are the most socially and environmentally destructive usually have the highest monetary value. In other words, human and environmental exploitation is the easiest way to pay the bank back, and create a positive return on capital ( at someone else's expense, of course).
Americans have completely sold their souls. The envy of wealth has destroyed America and good values. While Americans continue their race to the bottom, the powerful will divide, conquer, and dismantle America, piece and piece, and no one will even care. I'm amazed at how little Americans know about what is happening around them, to other people in the neighborhood, the country, or the world. America has become a nation of good Germans whose enemy are their own countrymen. Sad but true.
To all the wealth zombies floating about. Have a good nights sleep.
