“I sometimes think that there is a link between the decline in humanity and the increase in prosperity and comfort. Property and comfort are what people seek, but the costs to character are often terrifying.”
-Mo Yan, Red Sorghum
Progress might feel risky, and the cost is moral values.
If things make people feel like they are having a good life because of material things, it’s a rational way of seeing life.
If you are content with what you have and keep your moral values alive, it doesn’t matter what things you have.
