Money. What a word, what an idea. How does "money" make you feel? One might make an abundantly cogent argument that money is undoubtedly the root of all evils. And indeed it just may be. But what if we flipped that narrative on its head? What if money is how we measure and reward "goodness?" Think about it logically. Where there is value, there is money. What do we value? Generally, we value solutions to problems. If someone solves a problem that represents such a boon that people are willing to pay money for it - that is good. That is value. Money is the bloodstream of goodness. Yes, of course, it gets perverted. It isn't always good. There is dark money. There is blood money. There is all sorts of money. But there is also junk food, as opposed to pristine, high-end, healthy cuisine.
