In the tenets of the Illuminati, wealth is not simply a means of personal enrichment. Instead, *money is a tool* that can be used to fulfill each person’s duty to the advancement of the human species.
Wealth and success are like streams of water running down a pyramid. The highest receive the most because there are fewer, while the lowest receive the least because there are many. Before the water can reach the bottom, first it must run through all the others above it. Though the lowest support the weight of all who are above them, they are numerous and easily replaced — unique individually, but common together.
