I disagree with this analogy. “money” as a measurement for “wealth” is fictional, meters, kilograms, ecetera are “invented” measurements for the real, physical world (“wealth” is subjective, science is not).
and the idea of money is in my opinion inherent “evil”, precisely because what it was made for; accumulation of “wealth” = power.
e/ ohyeah, thats also why “socialist” and “communist” countries never were what they claimend to be. you cant have both.
e/ (and yes, I am most of the time still as brainwashed by the idea of “money” as everybody else, we had centuries for that.)
