Lyrics

There is this notion that making money is evil Like rooted back down all the way to Money is the root of all evil People thing think that bankers steal our money It is somewhat true that in a lot of the world There is a lot of theft going on all the time The history of the world in some sense is this Predator prey relationship of makers and takers There are people who go out and create things Build things and work hard on things Then there are people who come along and take With a sword Or a gun, or taxes, or capitalism or communism They are all methods of stealing Even in nature there are more parasites than there Are non-parasitical organisms You have a ton of parasites in you living off you And the better ones are symbiotic giving something back But there are a lot there taking That's just the nature of how any complex system is built But what I'm basically focused on is true wealth creation There's all these different methods to steal Methods to steal Methods to steal There's all these different methods to steal True wealth creation There is all these different methods of steal It's not by taking money It's not by taking something from somebody else But it's when creating abundance Obviously, there is not a finite number of jobs Or finite amount of wealth Otherwise we'd still be sitting in caves dividing up Pieces of firewood and the occasional dead deer Most of the wealth is through ambition In fact, not most, basically all of it was created and It got created from somewhere It got created from people It got created from technology It got created from productivity It got created from hard work This idea that it is stolen Is I think this horrible zero-sum game That people who are trying to gain status play But the reality is everyone can be rich We can see that by seeing in the first world Everyone is Basically, richer than almost any alive 200 years ago 200 years ago, nobody had antibiotics Nobody had cars Nobody had electricity So, all of these things are inventions that have made us Wealthier as a species Today I would rather be a poor person in the first world country Than be a rich person in Louie The 14ths France And that's just because of wealth creation True wealth creation Everyone can be rich Can be rich Can be rich Everybody can be wealthy True wealth creation Everyone can be rich Not by taking money It is not about taking something from somebody else But it's from creating abundance The engine of technology is science That is applied for the purpose of creating abundance I think fundamentally everybody can be wealthy And the thought experiment I want you to think through is imagine if Everybody had the knowledge of a good software engineer And a good hardware engineer If you could go out there And you could build robots, computer, bridges and programs Let's say every human knew how to do that What do you think society would look like in 20 years? My guess of what would happen is we'd build robots, machines, Software and hardware to everything And we'd all be living in Massive abundance We would essentially be retired in the sense that none of us Would have to work for any of the basics We'd even have robotic nurses Machine driven hospitals We'd have self-driving cars We'd have farms that are 100% automated We'd have clean energy At that point we could use technology breakthroughs to get Everything that we wanted And if anyone is still working at that point They're working as a form of expressing their creativity Because it's in them to contribute and to build and design things I don't think capitalism is evil Capitalism is actually good it's just that it gets hijacked It gets hijacked by improper pricing or externalities By improper deals where that you basically have a collection Or you have monopolies True wealth creation everyone can be rich Can be rich Can be rich Everybody can be wealthy True wealth creation Everyone can be rich Not about taking money It's not about taking something from somebody but it's from Creating abundance Abundance To get everything that we wanted Abundance Abundance To get everything that we wanted
