What's more important, your money or your life?

[SpheresOfBalance]

So which is it?

To me, when I say it out loud, it sounds quite absurd.
I mean, how did we arrive here in the first place?
When was it that we actually decided that our means to power was more important than our very lives that the power serves?
And it seems to beg the question: Are we in fact the dumbest animal on the planet?

"So what's the SOB up about now," you may ask?

Read the following and tell me what you think about it:
I would prefer that your response was born of a rational human perspective,
not that of an irrational money machine, but then that's up to you.
I wouldn't want to stack the deck, let the cards fall as they may.

OK Imp, I'm familiar with the video, I saw it all those years ago when it came out, when MTV as good, though I paid it no mind, other than it's silliness. Actually I saw him in a movie once, and surprisingly he wasn't that bad.

But what's he/it got to do with the topic at hand, I don't see the connection. Enlighten me with your elaboration please. I mean you didn't say whether you'd surrender your money or your life to the highwayman. If you believe I require a mirror, there are options other than fossil fuel.

I don't think it's a wise decision to shoot people because they don't agree with you. After all, it could simply be ignorance.
