Mr white car. U can respond that money is not the point of life as evedent by people who win the lottery and are extremely depressed.
There are many productive reasons to live if one is not Jewish and does not have the torah, ways in which one feels good in what they are doing or how they are living. If one has a productive job that they enjoy doing that helps the world. Or the love that one has for their family and the joy they have when they spend time with their spouse and kids.
While the Pakistani may still believe it will be gone when they die u can tell him all the I’m he is alive he will be happier this way that always running after the next dollar
While capitalism may be beneficial for society unfortunately it skewers ones value system into thinking the goal in life is money which its not, people keep on running after that dollar and are never happy.
And it is well known that such belief is avodah Zara.
One must play by the rules of the capitalist game to make a living but one must not worship the all mighty dollar and run after it like it’s hashem
