How Bad Are Things in California?

I used to have some issues with money that i eventually figured was holding me back some. I used to think money was the root of all evil,cause i got taught that from an early age. dicheads.

But its not the root of all evil, people wanting to have power over others is.
So now I think of money as being an energy storage unit that we simply swap around between ourselves instead of having to physically pay someone back immediatley and now there is plenty of stored energy for everyone.
(specially me).

Right on. It's the love of money as the root. Money should be a tool like a system of measurement. Nobody owns the metric system, you don't have to give up a piece of whatever you measure with it. Money has been hijacked and has private ownership.

The idea of money is converting an exchange of energy, making the barter system usable. I could only trade with some people for a certain item so many times. The big problem is the interest on the actual existence of the money. It spoils the whole system and causes inflation. This was the real source of the Civil war, fighting over the central banking system and who controls it. Unfortunately the wrong side won. It wasn't about black slavery, it was about everyone becoming slaves. We lost that one and have masked it as a win for freeing slaves.
