Who cares about being wealthy?

What if everything was free? We have the technology and resources to
be able to give everyone anything they want right now, but there is no
will to do so. When you have four or five hundred people having more
wealth than fifty or sixty percent of the population it's insanity.
Future generations will look back on these times and economic models
as barbaric. Basically whether it's capitalism or socialism  or
communism, they're all really a type of slavery. The have-nots have to
sell their labor and become indebted to those who have more.

It really is madness when an elite few have so much, and so many have
so little. There is no real reason it should be like this other than
ignorance. Rich and poor alike think that having more money and more
power makes you more happy.

If everything was freely available, people's motivations would be
completely different. Sure some people would be lazy, but who cares?
The people who want to work would work and those who don'would do
something else that they enjoyed.

But ignorance is the biggest factor. Why does anyone want to be
wealthy? What is the motive now? To have more things, basically. Just
more attachment to the objects and the appearances in the world
illusion.
