Which political ideology do you most identify with?
Do you feel that the wealth created by capitalism benefits society as a whole or just a select few?
Humans as a whole are too greedy and self centered to help others. There are a few exceptions of course, but they make a small minority of the wealthy. An example that comes to mind is the risk of donating large sums of money to a charity. It is a good cause, yes, but if you donate large amounts of money and then suddenly go bankrupt within the next month, you may regret donating to that charity, and you may even blame that charity as the reason you are broke. It is not a bad thing, being wealthy, it is only a bad thing when you flaunt your money in front of others or belittle others for not being as wealthy as you. But if you are rich and wealthy and humble, constantly conserving and saving your money then it is fine to be greedy and self centered as it is merely self preservation.
