Myths of rich and poor

"Well, you're close. "You" or "we" practice communism and capitalism when dealing with one another."

I was just aiming for a quick explaination so you didn't need to feel like repeating yourself.

"But saying you are for the advancement of the human race just puts you in a pretty large group."

I guess it does. The difference is I take it to a fairly realistic level. Consider masonry as a means to building the human the race to it's full glory ;(

"As I said, I suspect cats. "

There's alovecraft book out where he gets saved by kittens because he fed one of them milk. For some reason that reminded me of that story.

I just think it's lame that you place so much of your focus on something so inanimate and virtually hallucinagenic like money and economy. These are impermanant ideals, and they are also nonexistant except within our minds. As an entirely human creation, I think it's a bad idea to place any focus on it, especially as far as IDEALS go. I certainly wouldn't place my life in the hands of a hallucination. (there's a bit of a paradox there, maybe ill address it someother time)
The effect of focusing on money and other invisible ideals could play a hefty dance upon man's psychology. Like I said, I'm for development of healthy people. I accept that, in order to acheive it, we may have to work on our economy, but we're also going to have to work on MANY OTHER FACETS. It's not a simple thing where you can put all your eggs in one basket and hope the other chickens catch on-- all aspects need to be worked on. We need to work on improving all aspects of government.

Anyway, sorry if that was hard to understand I'm in a rush. Till later.
