Beggars on horseback

I don't personally think that the wealthy are any different from the rest of us. I mean, obviously they live differently, they behave differently, but there's nothing inherent about it. We put so much bad psychic karma (please note: I mean this in the precise and accurate sense) it's no wonder that massive accumulations exert powerful mutative radiation. Or perhaps it's more of a filtering process, the reverse of an orgonne chamber.

I don't blame it all on wealth or the wealthy. We all bear full responsibility for the shape we're in. But wealth is a strange concept, it is strange that it survives, wouldn't you think, in the market where it represents...

But what does wealth represent? What exactly is it that the wealthy few possess? Is it simply a bigger slice of the pie? We pretend that the market is some sort of natural or necessary force, because obviously there must be exchange. But what the market is, and all it is, is a wealth machine. It functions to send value on foolish missions, worthless expeditions of human folly. Wealth is simply a curtain tyrants stand behind, perhaps, but then it is also a force in itself, an externalization of the path we chose. I've met a few of these people and I realize they are like anyone else. And why not? We built the system such that someone has to be wealthy. How many turn down the chance?
