The most fundamental law of nature is that "As Ye Sow, So Shall Ye Reap" To survive a man must harvest the fruits of his own labor. He must first prepare the soil, plant the seeds and provide sufficient water. It takes a lot of time and effort for a man to feed himself.
Men have learned that it is often easier and less painful to harvest the fruits of another man's labor.
Everything we have a right to possess must be earned or stolen.
When we harvest the fruits of another man's labor we are engaged in theft.
"The love of money is the root of all evil" and cause men to lie, cheat and steal to acquire more of it. Wealth is not determined by how much you possess, it is determined by how much you are willing to give.
When a man makes a profit on an investment of his money and uses it to buy the things he wants, he engages in the sin of usury.
Since it is easier and more profitable to invest your money rather than your time and talent we have been taught that the love and acquisition of money is a righteous pursuit.
Politicians are consumed by the desire to accumulate wealth, power and prestige.
