THE DANGER OF RICHES ...
“Increased possession is not the ultimate goal of nations, nor of individuals. All
growth is ambivalent. It is essential if we are to develop as human beings, but in a
way it imprisons us if we consider it the supreme good, and it restricts our vision.
Then we see hearts harden and minds close, and people no longer
gather together in friendship but out of self-interest, which soon leads
to oppositions and disunity. The exclusive pursuit of possessions thus becomes an
obstacle to individual fulfillment and to true human greatness.
Both for nations and for individuals,
avarice is the most evident form of moral underdevelopment.”
Pope Paul VI, Populorum Progressio (1967)
