I'd assert there has never been a civilized nation that was not obsessed with money. In the case of some "primitive" "nations" that might be utilized to subvert my statement, I'd submit they were/are obsessed with the things their cultures considers "valuable"

So, people are what their cultures shape them to be. Cultures place "value" on certain things - the most common is some concept of "money" or material exchange. It seems to me that all humans share this trait.
