(1,309 posts)It is only about money as an avenue to power. Money is only used to gain ultimate power and only provides a measurable benchmark in the success of obtaining increased power by the most powerful over the people.
Accumulation of power and rewarding ego is the goal. There is really little two billion can buy over one billion except as to purchasing power.
Today we do not really have a war of the rich against the rest of us, it is a war of the wealthy who want to increase their power at the expe3nse of everyone else. It is not business, it is personal. Increasing money can occur in many benevolent and socially justified ways but the seeking of more and more power over others is never benign nor socially justified.
Today we ignorant whites cannot see those who would enslave us while they buy more and more political and National power. We whites need to listen to our black brothers and sisters who have experienced this lack of economic and social freedom all their lives and join with them in giving dignity back to the people.
We need to see that phrases like a rising tide raises all boats while a popular democratic mantra are beside the point and outdated. We need to recognize that raising our wealth woud reduce the comparative wealth the rich have, give us more freedom, give us more access to education and reduce the power of those who are gladly enslaving us with inadequate wages, preventing lack of access to universal health care, destroying a social safety net etc. .We should not be fooled accumulation of wealth is only a means to their evil ends.
You believe they are willing to overlook evil to get money, I believe they are getting mney in order to do evil as proof of their power and ego.
