The Philosophy of Money with Stephen Hicks (WiM350)
The "What is Money?" Show
The Morality of Entrepreneurship
I like your framing of money and business as sort of amoral because they are really just tools at the end of the day. Like these are meetings to an end, right? We're trying to satisfy wants and that's what these tools provide. So I look at it like, if a hammer is not inherently immoral or positively moral. It's an amoral thing, right? You can use it to something more like build a house or fix something or you can use it for killing somebody. The morality seems to be rooted in the actual actor rather than any particular toolLike money or business or even of these other constructs that we use.
