MY WISH : Eliminate the root of all evil | |

In order to achieve this goal one has to first destroy the corruption completely then one can rebuild with such goal in mind. 'exterminatore mundorum' |

Since 2001 corporate investments are not correlated any more to number of jobs increasing. I give it two decades top it will be crystal clear for everyone. It can be indeed a golden age that Mayan predicted , if we change economy paradigms properly. |

| Rising Son User ID: 32269124  Japan01/16/2013 11:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ... Quoting: Rising Son Wealth does not come from our own labor as much as it is bestowed by God for living a righteous life and walking the path to Him. Have faith in God and He will provide for you, with or without the support of the rich. Yes, Abraham was very wealthy. This enabled him to move him and his family and tribe to form the new Hebrew nation. Imagine on the other spectrum, people with no money are helpless like the Hurricane Katrina victims. Those with no money were stuck there. Money can assist and be the starting point to great things if its within Gods plan. Abraham was only wealthy through God's good graces. While it is certainly not all inclusive, most people who are poor have made the choice to be so, at least in America where there is opportunity. The Hurricane Katrina victims could have made it out of New Orleans if they wanted to, that is, if they were not expecting someone to carry them. Remember, the warnings to them were given many days in advance of landfall, and they made a choice to ignore those warnings. As always, idle hands are the devil's workshop, and when we expect others to pull our load for us, we will never build the strength or courage to bear that load again, and we will be left behind to wallow in our own selfishness, laziness, and misery. Sorry I think that is not correct. You cant say a person is poor because a.God doesnt like them or b.Because its their fault you do realize that Christ was poor Christ WAS poor, but was never without assistance through the intercession of so many of those who came to help Him. His life lessons inspired others to give up their possessions and follow him, but it also inspired others to provide for Him, in order for Him to carry on His message. Only the righteous man will prosper, and by prosper, I mean experience true happiness and well being. Wealth cannot purchase happiness, and how happy are those that live within their means and according to God's Laws! Last Edited by Rising Son on 01/16/2013 11:46 AM "Be still, and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10 Truth needs no validation because it is self-evident and undeniable. Therefore, anything that requires validation to be realized or justified as truth must contain at least some degree of falsehood. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] |

| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 31688241  Canada01/16/2013 11:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | THE LOVE OF MONEY, not the money itself, is the root of all evil. It is the desire to be carnally minded and seek worldly gain that causes evil, not the innate vehicle of currency for a given society/era. Quoting: UnmannedAerialPilot Yes, evil lies in the hearts of men and money is just a vehicle for these men. I've been heading to a more simplistic lifestyle over the years and learning to appreciate nature in all its glory and beauty. Nothing like heading to the woods to get re-grounded. Its stabilizing in our current GREED BASED PONZI system. |

It has been said in episodes like the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The Neutral Zone" and movies like Star Trek: First Contact that the economy of the Federation is quite unlike the economics of the 20th and 21st centuries - almost unrecognizably so. It is a socialist post scarcity society, similar to a resource-based economy: There is no poverty and no hunger, and the accumulation of wealth is not a driving force in society. According to Tom Paris in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Dark Frontier", a "New World Economy" began to take hold on Earth and throughout the Federation in the late 22nd century, and eventually made money obsolete. He even mentions that in the 24th century, Fort Knox is a museum, apparently to money and capitalism. JUST IMAGINE !  Whose with me ?? YEAH!!!....in some bits in the "NEW GENERATION"..that was brought up....and how that reduces the need for material processions and thus greed.....that is a crock!!!! |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 32362197 United States01/16/2013 12:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Continuing with the Star Trek references : Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31688241 Perhaps most famously, Captain Jean-Luc Picard states in the film Star Trek: First Contact "The economics of the future is somewhat different. You see, money doesn't exist in the 24th century. The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in our lives. We work to better ourselves and the rest of humanity." Currently we work to survive and make sure our Overlords are excessively comfortable. Picard is a bald commie fruit. Go with Kirk. He's wiser and more honest. Credits. Lots of credits. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32355089 Where do you people get this stuff? Money is not the root of most evil or any evil. Money is something we use to trade with for our everyday lives. If it wasn't money, you'd be trading in bottle caps. Stop trying to make the economy and money into some sort of sentient being to call evil. Your search for someone to blame but yourself doesn't work. This is what socialists did an do constantly. Trading is not evil, the economy is not evil, doing business is not evil, having money is not evil. It's what you do that makes you good or evil. The root of all evil is YOU. |
