Money seems to be a replacment for thinking creatively. The more of it you have, the dumber and lazier you get. The times in my life where I have scraped by have actually been more interesting and informative than the times when I could buy easy solutions.

Well I surely give high probability to money promoting unEthical ("evil") behavior. Whether it interferes with creative thinking is unknown. And most of My life has been scraping by...

I am elderly, disabled (psoriatic arthritis with bone spurs in My thumbs – typing hurts, but I do it anyway, slowly), denied assistance, lost everything, destitute but for the pittance of social “security” I now receive (that is MY money paid in for many decades!) – not 1/2 a studio apartment’s rent; just barely enough for food and sundries – and homeless, crashing on friends’ floors and using Their web on My 10+ year old laptop.

And I want to live in a world where Humanity is not motivated by money and ALL can live as richly as We choose.

Thank You so much for reading!
