The root of all evil
is not money as the official version goes.
It’s PRIDE.
It’s the ego of men, the individualism, the importance of oneself in one’s mind. Money and caring for money is merely a side effect, a consequence, a measure of it, a visualization of the ego. Ego is to blame for every thought and action that is AGAINST nature and humanity. The idea of being AGAINST is born from the ego of an individual; it is born from the perception of being an individual; when a human being thinks of oneself as a SINGLE human being among others and forgets that one is a part of a group of many human beings. That leads to competition, to racing with others and to a desire to win that race. Ego feeds from the will to conquer, to control, to possess. Money just evaluates it.
Individualism results in competition with other people in order to benefit in wealth, recognition or respect. It means to put your needs above anything/anyone else. That is what’s wrong with this world: too much people want to take a bite but the problem is there is just one cake and the hungry get more and more.

Individualism can also result from a total exhaustion of the human race...
When you feel that you no longer share the values of mankind, or, let's say occidental mankind, you aso feel the need to reduce your gregarious instincts to the basics : family and true friends (that means a dozen of people)...
As for unknown people, you become a lot more suspicious... it's sad but it can save you much time and happiness.
I posted it because our new president is the personna of your definition of individualism : we're close to become one of the 53 states... -bored-
