Money is a tool. Like a hammer, it can be used constructively or destructively. And sadly, yes it DOES give power over Others (money is power, don't You know?), and psychopaths LUST for power over Others and will do whatever They can get away with to get it.
If You are starving, and so is Your family, One with money can far more easily get You to do Their dirty work than if You are living richly. Or withhold money from You if You don't do as They demand.
They can pay Others to target You... Yes. Money IS power.
Pretty sure You have read none of My articles... Otherwise You would grasp the hell that psychopaths with money are creating on Our planet.
