Not having the means to a satisfying existence may be the single greatest cause of the various ills that plague our world today. What percentage of crime, of war, of injustice is caused by inequities in skills to obtain material goods? Many of us who have the skills to obtain material goods decry the emphasis on materialism, but when the material goods one desires are food, clothing, and shelter, materialism takes on a different meaning.
