    What does this have to do with your failed worldview? Do you know what it takes to recover from a pandemic? Money is the root of evil, but don’t think it’s not a tool used by heroes.

      “Love of money is a root of all kinds of evil” is the passage you’re misquoting. Money is just a tool, neither good nor evil in itself.

        Wrong on both counts honestly. Why assume religion or misrepresent money as a tool? A hammer can build or destroy, but money was always just a convenient way to control population, the level of nefariousness only varies based upon morals of those who have the most pieces of paper and of course the printers of said paper. I don’t really understand why this became religious either, I hardly believe in myself on most occasions. Is there a real point in worrying about having enough money when the game is so rigged you could have it all or lose it all just depending upon the actions of less than 1% of the world population? Money will not help us get these people to help solve the worlds problems, in fact I would say that imbalance has probably caused the stretching of an already flawed system. Be safe and responsible, I need rest.
