r,
Don’t you realize you’re endorsing the hated, immoral, billionaire-discriminatory DEATH tax? All this time I thought you were a good person, but now I can see that you’re nothing but a lousy billionaire-ist.

I was once in love with Kurt Cobain….., and I have no money. But who needs it? You work so hard to get it and then when you die it all just goes to waste. Money is only a material thing people.

Your post bolsters the idea that, since the people that love money don’t work to create good societies, and they’re the ones with most of the money, that money should be taken by a democratically-accountable government and given to fund people and actions that will foster the creation of a good society. Money’s just a means to an end, and if a certain person owning it and another person not owning it impedes the common good, the people need to reallocate the money, either directly or indirectly.

there are several ways to look at the money situation. one is that responsible people save money. you could also take into account that the concept of adulthood is bogus. many supposedly responsible people save money and work hard and hate their lives, having nothing good to show for their lives EXCEPT money. many people with money run our country and i suspect they believe that it is the money, in and of itself, that justifies their position of authority. it is easy to get down on yourself because you don’t have any money. i know the feeling. it’s too easy in our society to mediate the quality of our lives through THINGS. food, clothing, cars, etcetera. but then, i myself love eating out when i’m depressed, and nothing makes me more depressed than not having money. so i could round and round about money and only conclude that it’s a complicated topic. hi! i hope you are having a good vacation.
