    Oh absolutely, it’s power which allows laziness and comforts. In communism those in office are not the labor force ans can control the flow of money. Comfort.

    Same issues arise with capitalism since money allows these sames comfort and once you’re rich enough they won’t let you be poor again.

      Its also something that has to be dealt with or it will destroy humanity eventually, or turn it into something so horrible that destruction might be preferred. Any system we come up with will get corrupted by it if its allowed to exist.

      Though its so damn annoyingly hard to eradicate since by doing so you kind of become it yourself, at least if you try to do it the easy way. But to get rid of it in better way relies on people being able / wanting to change or at least not opposing the change in such way it causes more problems.

        The difficult truth, compassion and empathy is the only way to win. In turn needing something from everyone. Not everyone understands and in doing so they take with them others.
