Good one Alex.

The "economy" like "public health" is an artificial construct.

Artificial constructs dehumanize us, so the question, what indeed are we, becomes critical, for an individual and for all of us. Because if you're not contrarian on this question, you have swallowed the generally accepted theory of evolution, which basically boils down to: I am an accident, there was nothing before and there will be nothing after. Think about that for about a minute and you soon realize that if I'm an accident, nothing much matters. This for me explains much about where moral values have gone. Eventually it all ends up in nihilism, a far cry from the abundant life we could have if we could only answer the question correctly. See John 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy [sound familiar?]. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly."
