Personally I think the question we should ask ourselves is very simple, "Are we a slave to money or not?"
If we are honest, all of us, the answer is yes, I would say, no matter how rich or poor.
So we are not free until we are free of the tyranny of money.
The only way of removing that, is to allow money to go free, it seems to me.
Hence my story about Kardashev Money.
With that, an awful lot of things are fixed, I think.
