You're generalizing. Not all people serve money. And those who chose out of their own free will to become slaves to money do not represent those who don't chase money. I think you've made a false dichotomy.

People do not serve money, it is an inanimate object. It wants for nothing, needs for nothing, gains nothing. People cannot serve something that cannot ask or demand. People serve other people in hopes of obtaining money. I think we call money evil or say that someone is serving money because it is easier to blame corruption on an object. It cannot disagree or act, it can only be blamed. If we recognize that money is not evil, but that some people themselves are evil for the sake of greed, then we are saying that it is a part of humanity, part of human nature. And with that we are saying that it could be a part of us as well, and that is not easy to admit.

I believe we are already there my friend, ex: We can change world hunger but we can't count on the people who can actually do it for the money or the food to get there. It is sad but true. The only consolation I have is that we will all meet our maker someday and we will have to be judged for what we did and for what we didn't do... Keep the faith!

Yes we have, its all about gimme now, if I cant have it now, give me the credit to get it which I wont pay back or I will at 25% interest. "I wanna be rich" everyone has been lead to believe being rich solves your problems and its all about for them, no one can tell you why they wanna be rich as far as having an influence not only on one's self but others. We just think if your rich and you have money you simply have no worries

I serve no one, let alone serve an object.
