Wealth

The god of this world is riches, pleasure and pride, wherewith it abuses all the creatures and gift`s of God. ~ Martin Luther~

How is it created? What or who bestows it upon some of us? Is it ethically acceptable to be infinetely more rich than a whole country, and if yes, what is the purpose of being so wealthy, the final goal of it? If more people questioned wealth as I do, few would be able to abuse of it to control and exploit others.

Famously, Aristotele Onassis said “after a certain point, money is meaningless, it ceases to be the goal; the game is what counts“.

None of the wealthy people we know are concerned with ethic; to them richness is the ordinary and reality what they make of it. I despise those dismissing inequality as the natural consequence of progress, as if the sucking dry others to progress in any field of life within society could justify the achievements. It does not and it is absolutely despicable of some to think it cannot, should not even, be addressed.

I am not talking of redistribution here, alike some libtards wish to achieve under the ill-born ideology of socialism; it would be unfair to deny reward to the hard worker and pay him as much as they lazy, or to the entrepreneur risking his fortune to achieve a dream, all the while providing employment to others. I am talking of how riches are obtained, of the unfair exploitation of labour, the self-entitlement of some, whom believe to have right to decide how much another should earn, and the failing of our governments, globally, which have in place truly no laws (but pretended ones) to protect workers from an exploitation that enslaves them to a life of misery, through low paid jobs.

Not long ago I read of how much Bill Gates earns for his daily activity (which I would be interested to know more about): almost 32 million US dollars. Now, is it really a fair pay for what he did and does? Wouldn’t it be enough, say, to earn 1 million a day?

Capitalism, socialism, federalism, communism, plutocracy – which I will write about some day – are all the same thing from the worker’s point of view: an elite gets rewarded beyond merit, taking the credit, for doing nothing but use others’ efforts. People rewarded for using others to create something; what an idea. We all agree that whoever had a good one to benefit the mass (such as Internet, although I am still undecided on whether it is really benefiting us), should be rewarded. But as to how much this reward should be quantified in, I question the ethic applied by our capitalistic system.

The issue with wealth is that creates elitocracy allowing to few powers that they should never have access to. It allows them to be heard by a vast number of people, thus influencing views and understanding of situations; it therefore allows them to manipulate others, by changing their opinions, into doing or believing what suits them. It also grants them immunity to a greater extent than the permitted to commoners. Wealth compromises people’s integrity: wherever it is, there we find corruption, manipulation, deceit, abuse. True, wealth cannot buy happiness and does not buy health (to an extent it does, actually), but it can buy allegiances, media, power. I could bring up a ton of examples to support such claim, and yet I am sure there is no need to do so.

The elite hiding behind lame excuses keeps justifying its wrongdoings, as in the case of the US government making use of socialist indoctrinators to influence and manipulate gullible youngsters in universities. This was done to fulfil an agenda that would grant them such unimaginable power over the mass that talking about it one would think of conspiracies only.

Reality goes beyond fiction, that is.

Think of liberalism: human rights protecting abusers instead of victims, feminisms advocating for supremacy by teaching self-entitlement, people defending everything but their beliefs and heritage and democracy.  Five decades of indoctrination have grown the libtards we see around, whom gave birth to more (quite literally) and pardon my rant, but to see gays defending Islam (the belief that would trash them down tall buildings) and feminists demeaning men (talking of equality!), or people protesting to protect migrants rights whilst dismissing their peer citizens same rights, makes my blood boil.

Where all this rubbish came from, who stuffed people’s head with it and why?

These days many fail to see what’s going on, because the curtain of lies dropped over their eyes prevent them from realising the true power of wealth and words. Politicians and rich gets to be heard, to spread lies, to speculate very convincingly on issues touching the social and global, ultimately influencing the mass views with the consequent result of inspiring its doings. The idea of anyone believing factual truth would ever come to them whilst they sat comfortably on a sofa stuffing their faces it’s utterly ridiculous; yet the majority of people blindly trust what they hear on telly, or read on newspapers owned by people with clear political ties and agendas.

Wealth is the cancer of democracy; everyone should learn what critical thinking means and beware elite and politicians statements. Beware of words, as they can change the future.
