Making Money, and Not Being

America is obsessed with making money - much to its detriment. And the rest of the world is not far behind. Everyone wants more of the stuff - and doesn't see why they should not get it, since plenty of other people have.

They don't stop to think, about what is going on - they just know money can be made, and a lot of it, by some kind of magic. And they want to be included in that magic.

They can look around them, and see people who have lots of it - and conclude, they must have access to that magic. And one key ingredient, they can also see, is the ruthlessness of these people. They have got it, and they are going to get more of it - at the expense of everyone else. They are not very nice people.

Everyone knows this, and knows it is wrong. And knows this is the way it has to be, and must not be questioned.

How can they live with this contradiction? By not being. The world is full of people who do not exist, and don't want to.

They are safe, because no one can imagine the state of Not Being - and will deny that it even exists.
