    Someone who thinks it isn’t important probably hasn’t tried living without it. Can’t swipe a card to purchase a happiness yet but a lot of things that bring sadness become non-issues if you can throw money at them.

    In theory, it makes sense; it’s a physical thing we can exchange to represent gratitude.

    In practice, it has been completely weaponized against us and I hope we can stop using it.

    We live in the information age, we can track needs and contributions in a way that is more difficult to exploit.

    One saying is that money can’t buy happiness but it can definitely help relieve stress.
