Is Money Obscene? Try Europe

Is Money Obscene? Try Europe | MartinVarsavsky.net:

Interesting piece I came across (but it was several days ago and I forgot how I got to it... someone's blog)
Anyway - contrast in American and European view's.

"Obscenity

'designed to incite to lust or depravity'

So whatever incites lust or depravity is obscene, sex for example is obscene, or is it?

After living in America for 18 years and in Europe, for 10 I can argue differently. Sex is obscene in America, but in Europe money is more obscene."
