I think using food is a good analogy for this. Depending on where you live, you either have access to tremendous amounts of food, or you don't. Given a situation where food is in abundance, what happens? good example could be the US, where there is a serious problem with Obesity. Does that happen where there is no food? Sure, people with no money think money is evil, but in reality it's just a tool. give an average person a tool and tell them to build something and compare that to a giving a tool to a person who knows how to use it. What do you get? A look around at this world and you can already see that having money does not equate to "balance" as you say.. As long as money is tied to Power, and power corrupts, then there will be the opposite of balance. I think, people who have a lot of money don't care about the money (as it's all digits on a screen) they care about the power they can get by having that money.
