"Government of MONEY, by MONEY, for MONEY"
When did humanity become dominated by money?
You might first think of modern capitalism.
You say capitalism, but what is capital?
It's money, right?
Isn't it "moneyism"?
People often say that capitalism is an ideology that is opposed to socialism, but which is more important, money or society?
It's society, of course!
But don't some country's leaders use the word "socialism" as if it were a synonym for evil? They say, "X is socialism. (And that's why it's no good)."
Of course they say that because they are super rich, that is, they are the poster children of money. And the people around them are also super rich (with personal assets of hundreds of billions of dollars! Completely incomprehensible), so there's no stopping them.
What was meant to be "a government of the people, by the people, for the people" (Lincoln)
has become "a government of MONEY, by MONEY, for MONEY" (a certain leader)
Is this really okay?
So I think that socialism is 100 times better than capitalism, but that doesn't mean I'm a Marxist. That's because Marx denies religion. He said,
"Religion is the opium of the masses."
As someone who writes a prayer blog, I cannot accept this.
But that doesn't mean I think capitalism, or moneyism, is right at all.
And the fact is that money began to control people's minds, that is, when people became captivated by money, became addicted to it, and started walking the path to becoming money wreck, is actually much older. It is much older than the rise of modern capitalism.
So when was it? I'll think about that next time.
