IIUC, you're sharing your personal preference. Specifically, you would like people to indulge in luxuries only to a modest degree, and put a good effort into improving the environment, quality of life for other people, etc.
I didn't mean to disrespect your preference.
I was just saying that most people, I think, don't share your preference. And so the world will not evolve in the direction you wish.
