This is like saying "You love mosquitoes. Try not having any." Not having any would be catastrophic to humanity because whole ecosystems would collapse and we'd have mass starvation.
But it doesn't change the fact that mosquitoes are personally, deeply offensive to my day-to-day experience living in a place where they exist.
(That being said, I have a lot of money and love it. But I'd give a ton of it away if it meant there were whole classes of problems I never had to think about again, like paying for my children's university, or making sure I can afford health care. I'd certainly give that amount away if it meant nobody needed to.)
