Its not about being poor its about escaping your #fakeducation.
If you actually read those books instead of cherry picking the first convienent phrase to represent the whole, you would know that by now.
Well, maybe in a few days, or weeks, depending on how fast you read.
Do you do voice chat? lol It seems like I barely have enough time to do steemit. :(
By wealth I wasn't just referring to monetary wealth. We have people who make $100,000 a year and struggle.
In general I think wealth is much better than poverty even under the purely traditional definition. We need to use our time money and resources to improve our lives and the world and create more "wealth".
Ah, ok.
Yes, we should all work together to increase the benefits of working.
Ergo, keep working, stop paying.
Paying benefits the few by restricting what the many get out of the deal.
This has been quite scentifically worked out by kropotkin in 1906's Conquest of Bread.
Working and spending can be indivualistic. You could work at planting perennial fruit and saving money. Spending is also very important. You can buy a new car and destroy wealth or a used car and hopefully maintain wealth.
Money is a useful tool for valuing time and labor. You could substitute one or both for money but it very few people will work for absolutely nothing.
Or, we could value work in ways that didnt make us slaves of those that have more money than us.
You neighbors will know if you underwork or overconsume.
This method places value on reputation rather than wallet size.
Seeing that wallet size can be gamed by bad acting, seems to me that reputation is a better measure of wealth creation.
A lot of that slavery is on the spending side.
A lot of people overspend and give an illusion of wealth.
There are a lot of rich people who don't overconsume. I think there is a book called Millionaire Next Door.

lol Have you read the bible? I'm not just pulling from common sense capitalism. Wealth can be created and destroyed.
Have you read The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross?
Wealth is a term that enslaves us all.
