Without that competition we would all be drooling vegetables who would eventually die off. We ALL want more. You may be making 250$ a week and looking at the guy who makes 1,000 a week and saying to yourself, "fuck, if I had that sort of money I would be set." NO!! you would only live to get more because that would become the norm for you and you would set your sights ever higher. Human fucking nature. You can't even fight human nature because in doing so you are being a slave to that very nature  |
Er... I see you do not understand how a deleted abstract concept works.
You say it is impossible to delete the concept of money even if there was no money.
Wrong... let me explain.
For 10,000 Years: God-Kings, and the concept of God, and the concept of Kings has existed in civilization. Civilization created these abstract concepts.
Er... I do not know if you are a student of history... but if you are... have you noticed? That in the last, say 2-300 years... these two abstract concepts: the Concept of a God, and the Concept of a King have been slowly deleted>? EXPUNGED... WIPED OUT... from the human consciousness?
Today there are hundreds of miliins... nay, even BILLIONS! Of people for whom the concept of a KING does not exist any more. It has been DELETED from their culture. As has the concept of a GOD also...
Today: there is the abstract concept of money...
In case you do not know... for most people, all over the world: the abstract concept of did not exist except as a form of robbery called legalized taxation. Before, for thousands of years: Kings demanded things from the people they oppressed. Not in the form of money. It is only in the last thousand years of civilization that this abstact concept spread.
You are simply monocultural. You cannot imagine any other culture, or any other way of living except the one YOU have. And you get very upset when someone asks you to imagine any other way of living...
I know the fact that you have failed the challenge grates upon your ego... but don't get angry at ME for that. I merely asked an innocent question.
