Money can only fulfill our short-term demand. If we were in desert, we would spend a lot of money to acquire a drop of water. But if we had a lot of rain, we would spend a lot of money just for a ray of sunshine. Water, sunshine cannot value their importance of their own. Only money can tell their relative value under particular circumstances.
I just wonder how we spend money just for fulfilling our short-time demand. Before we eat dinner, we spend some money for it, but after we ate it, we wouldn't spend the same money for it.
Also the value of same amount of money differs between haves and have-nots. In one dollar, some can buy only one beer, while others can buy ten beers, depending on where-which country you live.
In general, money means nothing, let alone it's nothing to with truth, justice, freedom.
