As long as it doesn't say 666 or is a micro-chip then most people don't care.
"Money over everything" is a cool thing to say now in pop culture. Except the only ones who actually control it are the rich leaders
In ancient Egyptian and Sumerian times it was "Gold over everything" and even then they were enslaved to get it for the rulers while they worked long hours, were poor, and barely surviving.
Just like today who people work in offices for corperations.
The God of money was called Anu in Sumer. According to the myths he created the human race to be his slave and get gold.
It never ceases to amaze me how some will defend the things that represent various evils in the world

I'm amazed by the refusal of some to realize the distinction between money and the love of money. If you truly believe that money itself is evil then you should not have it.
What's in your wallet?

My 2 cents on the subject is this... I see money as a tool. I see money as neutral. I believe it is how you use it, and how you work with it that determines its goodness or badness. If you value it above people and relationships, I see this as unhealthy, just as it would be unhealthy to value anything else material over people and relationships. You can have a healthy relationship with money and even live in abundance, so long as proper priorities, perspective, and balance are maintained.

I agree money is a SATANIC tool to enslave human kind.
Money is no more evil then a gun or a spoon. It's an object, that can be different for the person who holds it. For a homeless person, it's survive another day. For the poor, it's to keep a roof over their heads. For the rich, it's a trophy to show how far they come. For the greedy it's a crutch and addiction. Anyone who says money is evil has never truly spent time with out it.

Its neutral and the evil is in you if you think money is evil yet you use it on a daily basis, or do you worship Satan?
People are forced to use it against their will but it's not evil?
You have a strange view about good and evil.
It is the perfect belief for an elite to gain complete domination.
God gave land and fruits for free as a gift. The beast put a price tag on everything and make you worship his image.
It is the perfect belief for an elite to gain complete domination.
Soon people will happily take a mark into their skin when a lot of money is put on the microchips to start off the new currency.
