All the economic theories, all the economic systems are predicated on this premise, based on this assumption that the goal of man’s action is to have more money. This they call as welfare, or even luxury. In some theories, they say that maximization of luxury is the objective of man’s efforts, but even this luxury that they are talking of is just money, material things.
All the economics that we see is inherently faulty because it assumes that all that man wants is material comforts. No economic theory takes into account that what man really wants is liberation, not monetization.
