I think we live in a society that wants entitlement, and to have something without working for it!. That makes people who produce "lower class", even to the point where those who have the entitlements are so brass balled that they actually rationalize that those of us who produce things are "bottom feeders"!.

That's why I'm enjoying the decline of the dollar, and the lowering of standards for those who've been rewarded for not contributing anything of value to their respective communities!.
They cannot survive without money, which is the basis of their identity!. Many will kill themselves if they face the prospect of having to move into my neighborhood!. Many will not know how to cope with being a product of the world that older generations of their kind have produced!.

The love of money!.!.!.as the saying goes!. A realistic interpretation is the love of other people's efforts, and none of your own!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Evil, I know of no evil!. It's a common point of view shared by society and inflicted like a disease from your imaginary god!.

Life revolves around money, and the goal to attain it, so any action that we do is fueled by the desire to achieve it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
