The old doing things for money is inherently evil philosophy coming out again?
If everybody could just live in love and harmony and to work towards a common goal.
> The problem is greed and selfish pursuit of wealth by certain kinds of people who see that as a worthwhile purpose for their life.
No. The problem is not pursuit of wealth but when that pursuit leads to breaking of the law or focus on changing political outcomes.
To be successful society needs to have good laws and enforcement and a stable political system.
The problem is when those things are not correct, not 'greed and selfishness'. Trying to change human greed and selfishness or setting changing that as a necessary goal to improve the world will always fail.
In fact people who wanted to earn money for themselves and their families have overall done a huge mount of good in the world.
