That's not how money works, is the problem. We don't really assign money it's value. It stands in as a portable (and non perishable) unit of barter for other things which have value. How many hugs would you accept as compensation for one years worth of productivity in a potato field? Will having a pile of hugs solve the problem of poverty? Is that why people are poor....a hug deficit? If wealth were kindness, and the wealthy had piles of hugs to redistribute to the hug-poor, no amount of re-distributing them would make the poor meaningfully, rather than metaphorically, more wealthy.
...well khem! When you really think about it.. Money system exists because poor and rich exist... If everyone was rich noone would be.. So how can this be the greatest invention when it is what ensures the existence of the poor in our world
