Addicted
To The Fantasy
Of Being Rich Someday
Afraid
To Face The Reality
Of Being Poor
They Hold Onto An
Endless Dream
Of Being Wealthy Too
And Gladly Vote
Against Their
Own Self Interest
As They Drink
Another
Cup Of Koolaid

If there was no greed–we’d have no problems. If only it was that simple!
Yes, so true and so wise! Sad that we have to live with the world like this though! Thanks so for commenting!

Its not greed i dont agree.may be lack of contentment
Well, if you trace that to its final conclusion you kinda end up at greed. Lack of contentment leads to frustration; frustration leads to anger; anger leads to action; and then you get to “coveting=greed”. Notice, it is the Love of Money that is the root of all evil. It prevents us from having compassion and being generous. Just me!

If u want it more than necessary that may be lack of contentment but itvu want is it all yours loads and loads of it thts greed.asking for wht is necessary is hardly greed
To prey on the poor by promising them everything they want to hear. Might that Kool-Aid be orange flavored?
Oh, my God, Jerry! You see through me way too easily! Yes, along with a culture raised on the Law of the Jungle!
Thanks for commenting, My Friend and making me laugh!
