    "In economics we have reduced humanity to a collection of individual, in-dependent, utility maximizing creatures. Success is defined by the accumula-tion of material and financial wealth over a lifetime. We are born into this freemarket ideology without questioning its morality or ethical foundations. So watermarked is this spirit of economics and capitalism on our lives that eventhough our hearts cry out for a more meaningful and genuine existence, we are sucked back into the squirrel cage of capitalism, running faster and faster to “keep up with the Jones,” lamenting as we imagine a simpler, more meaningful, more genuine life."
