Loved this post...you hit the nail right on the head on many points..( the free energy theory however seems too good to be true, in my opinion...but you never know)... in any case, yes, I also agree that Greed is definitely at the root of soooo many human and social problems...and the only way to control it is by starting with ourselves. We are bombarded daily with consumerism and materialism that it is difficult to put the breaks on, but once one becomes aware of this trap, it becomes easier to remember to say No to our every whim and wish. Thanks for your great article which gives me much food for thought.
