No, I have pretty clear thoughts about this now.

Since Adam and Eve, man has searched for a way to escape labour, which is a curse to all.

Some became warlords, gangsters, and military men. These took over areas and started demanding taxes from the local farmers, no different than what the mafia does today, and thus evolved into the state.

Certain women became sluts and trophy wives, to get in with these men and live without labour, which is why Pharaoh, eg., was able to accrue over 400 wives.

Some became slave-masters, and by direct intimidation and violence managed to escape labour.

Others became bankers and money-lenders, hoping by this means to gain an income without doing anything other than occasionally sending enforcers to crack some heads.

Then, we had "businessmen", who managed to trick the workers into believing that their initial investment means they are entitled to infinite returns, thus giving them an escape from labour.

It is a long, long history of those who actually do labour and actually produce something being parasitically leeched off by taxation, inflation, exploitation, slavery, and violence.

This is the history of the world. The exploitation of the producers by the parasites.

Am I envious? No. I wouldn't accept Bezos £500 million yacht if he offered me it for free. I want nothing of these wordly riches, which are revolting to me. I want freedom from parasitism, a small piece of land, and friendly neighbours.

Ultimately, none of us will be happy until our hearts rest in Jesus Christ and we are illumined by his Holy Ghost.
