A harsh criticism of contemporary society’s obsession with making money.
The individual has now been depersonalised by yearning for money and has been reduced to being a money-eating gadget; stuffing itself, never satisfied. “You constantly need your fill of money, for this you are afraid of giving, and your taking is only in ONE direction: you always need to stuff yourself with money, stuff yourself with food, stuff yourself with stolen happiness and knowledge, because you are empty, hungry, unhappy, ignorant and you do not want true wisdom” .Reich
