      Save Lives - No money?

      Let's say if we wanted to build something that cost loads of money but would save lives. Whats the point in exactly paying if it saves lives? It would be easy for mankind to easily get the resources without paying. I mean we technically own the earth.
      Any thoughts, questions, criticisms pleaz reply

      Well people aren't going to give away what resources they have for free. Even if it's to save lives.

      No, money keeps us running around. The planet could give a shit.
      If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama

      Haz, I think you're raising a good point. With our current system, no one except the very kind would be willing to spend a lot of their time on a life-saving machine. However, if communism was dominant then maybe things would work out.

      I guess somethings will always be a mystery to people. We'll probably never know if aliens exist, why we are here etc. i guess we'll just have to live life the best we can. Oh well.
      Wait a minute why am i talkin about this. Hmm that will probably be a mystery.
