Re: Money = Freedom
In today's world, you 100% need money to live that good life. Money is made scarce on purpose by tyrannical government taxation, monopolistic crony capitalism, and fiat currency scams like the federal reserve. The people of earth are intentionally impoverished, and what was a naturally abundant world becomes a land of dearth and struggle.
What the friend wants are reasonable things that all people deserve, with or without money. To chase money is to play by the rules of a corrupt system. The real solution is to -- somehow -- remove all institutional corruption throughout the world; then, the freedoms and wealth that is our birthright will be ours.

Re: Money = Freedom
You have a really good point. I'm thinking about how oil, which is a natural resource, upon discovery would only enrich one individual, or one family, or one corporation. How is it that a natural resource in abundance is not shared by all. Same with technology. Do you ever wonder how a few become billionaires, and while the rest slave away? Shouldn't technology be freely available to all?BrianKingofTrolls wrote: ↑August 17th, 2022, 9:11 pm
