I have had this discussion before and all of humankinds problems and hardships can be reduced to one word... GREED!

What does that mean?

The day someone attached a value to something someone wanted or needed, the game was up. Hello hardship. Everything on this planet costs NOTHING. Yet day in and day out we get bled dry, and for what? So some doctor or lawyer or politician, etc. can live a better life. Get the million dollar home and drive their mercedes or BMW.

The world would be a better place if people were more interested in helping each other out instead of finding new ways to make life harder for everyone. But they aren't and that is why the world will never get any better and just continue to rot and fester.

Think how much more technologically advanced we would be if the nonexistent, ridiculous cost were not a factor for innovation.

A monetary system is nothing more that forced slavery.
