Sick or Sane (Fifty For A Twenty)

To me, money is an unnecessary necessity. To do anything in the American society money is a requirement. Money is the drive of life.

There are necessities that must be met in order to live; such as, food, water, and shelter--let's look at these individually. In order to gather and hunt, one has to have land, supplies, and tools. Land costs money; supplies cost money; tools cost money. Now water...Water, well...that's free, but not quality. For quality, healthy water one must pay utilities or pay for supplies to make some kind filter. Lastly, shelter...simple as this: homes cost money; for the supplies, for the tools, for the labor, and for the land that the shelter will go on.

Money causes issues within society such as debt, inflation, and arguements. Many are well aware that debt can ruin peoples' lives--Ask Michael Jackson about his 3 or 30 some-odd million dollar debt. The desire of money and profit has caused oil companies to shoot prices to the sky, leaving many Americans in a state where they cannot afford transportation, and in turn, a life for their family.

My point, money is at the center of a web of issues, one thing leading to another; almost all things relevant in the sense that money causes corruption.
