The answer is so clear for a monkey... Those humans are really funny
in choosing to make money the purpose of life. Look at those rough
guys riding motorcycles, look at kids and seniors alike with a big
grin when riding trikes. People naturally choose being "OUT OF THE
CAGE" unless, of course, money corrupts everything.

Now that the Financial Times gave the official death certificate to
PREDATORY CAPITALISM, we are looking for new ways of life that are
more rational. Well, it's rational to be irrational like a monkey, not
a gorilla. And nowhere in the Financial Times there's a mention of
Jesus coming to rescue us, so we must be creative.

Perhaps the SUV was the very symbol of the monkey that wanted to be a
gorilla. Think about it, THERE'S NOTHING ADVENTUROUS ABOUT AN SUV
unless you are in a real jungle or real safari. Money made us king,
but who wants to be King Kong?

You can mug a suit and tie and make money and
have fun at the same time, can't you?

You could but not at the expense of sacrificing space and moving into
gated communities. Think of a rich person owning a sailboat not a
cigarette boat. There must be some morality to money and respect for
the poor for money not to be corrupting.

Money itself is innocent and not corrupt.....but people corrupt the
money.

Yeah, but when the whole purpose of life is to have money, the web of
society suffers. Only those that have money are respected and they
retire behind gated communities.

Now think of religion. Our moneyed elites know full well that Jesus
ain't coming. They are predators, pragmatic people if you will. They
know Jesus is a drug for the poor, so they have the hope of happiness
in the afterlife. The rich though insist on the good life on this
planet. In other words, our elites are responsible for keeping the
masses ignorant, a fact that feeds terrorism and religious wars.

Think of Nigeria being their next victim.

Sorry, that was Mother Teresa.

We don't want to feed the wildlife. We want to teach them how to fish,
making sure nobody goes hungry.
