It makes me almost insane. Our so- called society is a play of marionettes. To be educated is a mere matter of money. A poor muzhik is doomed to ignorance simply because he has no money. Not only that, but money has become the standard measure of everything.
Money is looked upon as the end of every ambition and every noble work.
It has commercialized all art, thought and literature. It has brought about modern industrial slavery, which is just as bad as was the feudal state. Nobody can deny that we are money worshipers. Nobody can deny that money is considered as the measure of education, of talent and of genius. The rich man is a demi-god.
