What you have to understand, is that the role of the people who control the money and the resources on this planet, is not to create a better world
for everyone, but to continue the hegemony which allows a small number of people to benefit from the hard work of the majority, world wide.
The better better world you are talking about, is only desireable to those whose efforts have either gone unrewarded, or have not resulted in more
control over our level of safety from things outside our control. For example, people working thirteen plus hour shifts, but getting paid little
because that is the only work they can get, will desire a better world, a fairer world, a more effort oriented world.
Those however, who earn money by abstract means, who can earn as much as a regular person would in a year, just by waking up and going to the toilet,
have no reason to desire a better world, because they and theirs are having no problem feeling satisfied with their lot, and they are the ones with
the power.
