If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude more than the animating contest of freedom, go from us in peace.
We ask not your counsels nor your arms.
Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you.
May your chains rest lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.
- Samuel Adams
I guess this mainly applies to politicians because otherwise there's nothing wrong with free competition and seeking wealth
prescient comment from sam
He must have been already somewhat wealthy himself at least compared to the average person.
