Greed is good. Why are most Euro culture making it look like money is "evil"?

Looks like reminiscences of the Catholic regime.

The greedy people in America are europeans, so I don't see the point. Who do you think imported greed into America? And why this myth of 'European Socialism' still prevails, I have no idea. The difference is marginal.

I like you Alex but I have to call you out on this enormous misconception:

Catholicsm has embraced money/wealth, in stark contrast to most other forms of christianity like lutheranism and Calvinism. Catholism is about grand cathedrals, lavishly decorated, just look at the Vatican! Money wasn't evil, no, money made Catholicism function as well as it did. money was acces to heaven as you could pay off your sins, the church had a large hand in all kinds of taxes.
