Greed & Justice

People have been the same throughout time. There have always been polite or rude people, pleasant or unpleasant people, clever or stupid people, etc etc.

But 2 traits I find much more prevalent now than in the past are greed, especially the greed for more money and the lack of justice, specifically the ability to ascertain what is right or wrong and having the right thought process to decide based on this.

This can be especially seen in the increasing number of fraud and corruption cases, and the surprising reaction of people to such cases.

Any comments?

It's foretold in the Bible, during the endtimes more are more people will be like this. i.e. all the evil traits start to show.

You Chinese have hell money don't you? One's descendants can convert the earth money to netherworld money.

I think if I'm not wrong the last exchange rate is S$1 : H$50,000

Living in hell is like living in primitive economies like Indonesia and Africa, where their currencies are weak and everything's much cheaper.

We have to rejoice for them even when they die, because they are moving from happiness to greater happiness.

Can you unpack this bit?
Do you mean explain this bit?
The surprising reaction to fraud and corruption is that some people actually think there's nothing wrong with these. They may even do it if they think they can get away with it and in certain cases, even regard the fraudsters as heroes.
