Ok, I might be using the wrong terms. I meant that in attempt to archive contentment, a man starts looking in whatever places possible. And first, starting from childhood, a man is looking into the outer world, world of objects and events (which I call materialism). Many people hang on there for a long time, but eventually the growing dissatisfaction forces them to start looking in other place - the inner world of concepts and ideas (idealism). Of course, the order is not strict and there are exceptions, but it applies to the most people, I think. In that sense it would be more correct to say that
usually, a man starts as a materialist, rather than
it is easy to be a materialist.
I agree, that the world seems to be forced to keep that materialistic state, but that's unnatural and would lead to the burst.
