Ayn Rand Rant Against Money as Evil Beliefs

"So you think that money is the root of all evil? Have you ever asked what is the root of money? Money is a tool of exchange, which can't exist unless there are goods produced and men able to produce them. Money is the material shape of the principle that men who wish to deal with one another must deal by trade and give value for value. Money is not the tool of the moochers, who claim your product by tears or of the looters, who take it from you by force. Money is made possible only by the men who produce. Is this what you consider evil?" -- Ayn Rand

Ayn Rand says Money is a Vehicle, You Are a Driver

"Money is only a tool. It will take you wherever you wish, but it will not replace you as the driver." -- Ayn Rand
