Humanity
realized after reflection upon its disasters that a philosophical
value system, an axiology, for a realistic economic system needed to
regard wealth as a function of the general well-being of all of the
people of the culture. Rich people may be allowed, yet not so rich as
to make the possession of wealth equal to the possession of political
power. Billionaires in your deck are just a tiny percent of the
trillions and trillions of humans living over the free expanse of the
galaxy. They too realize that the security of all can be no greater
than the security and wealth of the least of humanity. All of
humanity are brought to exist within an effective, constructive range
of inventive and contemplative existence. The extremes of
concentrated wealth and poverty such as the Aristarchs and other
imperialists use are absent from a free human society.
