“FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY is the root of all evil” it says in 1 Timothy 6:10. Ayn Rand turned that around in her novel ‘Atlas Shrugged’ to say “money is the root of all good.” She took capitalism to its natural conclusion. It is what gives us today the phenomenon of economic strength prevailing over environmental health, as well as decisions such as Citizens United in which the U. S. Supreme Court held that corporate funding of political activity was protected free speech per the 1st Amendment and couldn’t be limited. Money is speech! And the more money you have, the more weight your speech carries. Ayn Rand was certainly up-to-date in her seemingly preposterous celebration of money as the be-all and end-all of how things work, from the production of products to the production of legislation and, of late, court decisions. With money, one can purchase everything from dinner to a smiling congressman. Too bad if the interests of corporate America don’t coincide with the best interests of a vast majority of the electorate. The bible may be full of a lot of nonsense, but Timothy got it right re love of money. That’s not to say it doesn’t suck to be poor, but there’s a huge difference between ENOUGH money and TOO MUCH money.
