Together we can save the world from Envy.   
      
   Our world is abundance. Since capitalism become the norm as time goes   
   by, and starting from the publication of "Wealth of Nation" it's   
   a proven fact that our standard of living has grown exponentially.   
      
   However, why capitalism does not happen sooner? Why there are still   
   people and society that stubbornly oppose capitalism?   
      
   Ladies and gentlemen. Our world is unfortunately ruled by envy people.   
   Envy people are people that do not want to see others being successful.   
   The very thing that they do not want is success and progress. Yes,   
   capitalism brings prosperity. However, capitalism also fairly rewards   
   those productive individuals generously. This roused hatred from those   
   who are too lazy, dumb, or dishonest to productively earn wealth.   
      
   Is envy real? Do I make that up? If it's real, why we rarely ever   
   hear people say that they hate free market because they do not like to   
   see their countries proper? Why we keep seeing other more   
   "legitimate" concern, such as lifting up poverty, addressing market   
   failure, the need for more regulation, stabilizing economy, job   
   creation, mass education, or family value? Here's a hint, all of   
   which are handled best by the market itself, by the way.   
      
   First, I will show you that envy is real. Then I'll tell you how   
   dangerous envy is because it rarely, if ever, spoken straightforwardly.   
   Envy motivated hatred is almost always justified by some vicious lies   
   and prejudices. After that I'll explain why it is very important to   
   be hostile to envy people, far more than being hostile to all other   
   root of evil. In fact, envy, is the root of all evil and suffering we   
   see nowadays.   
      
   Envy is real. The causes of envy are not usually far from the case of   
   disgruntled competitors. In fact, envy is effectively a form of   
   unhappiness competitors that fail to provide better offers often face.   
      
   Why people are envy? It has a lot to do with how we evolve. You see,   
   most species reproduce sexually. In most case, a species is divided   
   into 2 sexes. The male, with a lot of small gametes try to acquire as   
   many females as possible. The females, want the best genes and other   
   perks. For peacock, the genes, signaled by elaborate tails is the only   
   currency. Different species have different techniques of females'   
   acquisition. For humans, females are usually attracted by wealth.   
   Creating a lot of wealth signals genetic quality. That's because not   
   every male can be rich. Females that pick richer smarter males will not   
   only more likely to get better genes, but will have more inheritance   
   for her sons. Those sons will then become richer and attract more   
   females.   
      
   So under normal circumstances with minimum market distortion and   
   governments' interference, sexier individuals tend to survive better   
   in the gene pool. Smarter richer males mate with more females and   
   produce more kids. Prettier females can aim for richer males getting   
   better genes and more money. It's just like under normal free market   
   circumstances, the best products and services will fill the market.   
   Then things will get better and better.   
      
   The same way, under normal unregulated sexual selection process, as   
   well as in any other process actually, the best genes will fulfill the   
   earth.   
      
   These make many inferior envy people very unhappy. So they   
   instinctively evolve preferences to get in the way of anyone gaining   
   better success in anything. Such preference is called envy.   
      
   Envy is usually promoted by those who are inferior. Those who truly are   
   superior do not need to cheat by resorting to supremacies ideologies,   
   or gas chambers, etc. Let the market decide which one makes the most   
   money, let sexual selection decides which one more attractive.   
      
   Why envy is very dangerous? Because it's rarely an honest preference.   
   Envy is often justified with some forms of pretexts. What is honest   
   justification?   
      
   Say you accidentally step in someone else's' shoes. Say he got mad.   
   The justification is you step on his foot. The problem is the same. So   
   what should you do to appease him? Stop stepping on his shoes. Perhaps   
   offer a little compensation for the small discomfort. If you see a   
   sign, "Don't break my car or I'll get mad" what's the issue?   
   He doesn't want you to break his car. What should you do so he   
   doesn't get mad? Don't break his car.   
      
   If some welfare recipients say, "Give me money I am starving, less I   
   wage riots." What's the issue? He's starving he wants food. What   
   should you do so he doesn't riot? You have two choices. You can kill   
   them, or you can just feed them. Me, I prefer to just feed them because   
   it's more humane and not very expensive anyway. There still have to   
   be harsh consequences for not being productive to be fair, such as   
   preventing unproductive people from making kids till they can actually   
   afford those kids so our problems don't grow. The point is when the   
   pretext is the same with the real problem, it may be more auspicious   
   and reasonable to appease and you can appease easily and cheaply.   
      
   Envy motivated hostility is different. What envy people want from you   
   is your failure. However, people want to maintain appeasable attitude.   
   If the very think they want from you is your failure, obviously you   
   wouldn't bother trying to appease them. Moreover, envy is heavily   
   related to disgruntled competitors. Competition for making better   
   products and services benefit so many people. Competitions among cake   
   shops, for example, give intensives for shops to make the most   
   delicious cakes with the least price and hence will benefit consumers.   
   So, simply wanting a superior competitor to fail will be very   
   politically incorrect.   
      
   Envy people will come up with other pretext to justify their hostility   
   toward you. Say you're successful. Say somebody hates you because   
   you're successful. They're going to say you're wrong because you   
   hurt someone else's right. Usually, they made up some rules after the   
   acts, or anything to show that you're wrong. You will then say,   
   "Well, it's not a written rule, so I don't know. But tell you   
   what; I can be successful some other way. So no worry lah..." You   
   would think that buy addressing the pretext you've solved the   
   problem. But that's not the real problem. The real problem is they do   
   not want you to be successful. So, they're going to get even MADDER.   
   Then you don't understand why they get mad? Then they will acts like   
   it's obvious that you're wrong that you're so stupid you don't   
   know.   
      
   Then they'll bring their friends to shape public opinion damaging   
   your reputation. Then you'll really run into problem. Remember,
