I'm typing this next to a shower. We need a symbol to represent everyone who is not a billionaire. Does anyone have any ideas? My last post was removed as I suggested a guillotine. So uh, don't suggest guillotines guys. We don't want to offend anyone now.

Put 🚫 on top of💲?

It is the information age. We do not need physical money, we have the means to track resource allocation, production, processing, and need. Money incentivizes competition instead of cooperation. As human beings living on the same planet, we all have similar goals. The rich are using their money to hoard even more money, deliberately depriving others of their basic necessities.

I don't want to be a slave or a master. I don't want to be rich. I want a life worth living, work worth doing. I want to help people.

I get that it will take much time and effort to change, but if we don't, we might all die for someone else's greed. Many people already have. Easier said than done, admittedly.

    It's not just altruism. Empathy is reasonable. Cooperation is necessary for our survival. If we give up, the rich will kill us all.
