“People in positions of leadership like politicians have emerged from within a society that depends on money so naturally they think like that and lead society further in that direction. In this kind of society people who value affection and compassion are treated like fools. While those whose priority is making money become more and more arrogant. To be angry on behalf of those who are treated unjustly means that we have compassionate anger. This type of anger leads to right action and leads to social change. To be angry towards the people in power does not create change. It creates more anger, more resentment, more fighting.” MoneyCompassionSocietyAngerPriorityDalai LamaNoriyuki Ueda Book:Be Angry Source: Be Angry
