Cuando la personificación de la riqueza recupera la vista, el orden social se invierte y los hombres de bien comienzan a prosperar mientras los parásitos caen en la miseria. El texto examina las raíces de la injusticia económica con una mezcla de esperanza y cinismo, cuestionando si la honestidad humana sobreviviría a una distribución perfecta de los recursos materiales.

Aristophanes (Greek: Αριστοφάνης; c. 446 BCE – c. 386 BCE) was a playwright of ancient Athens. About 11 of his works are known in full, and they are the only plays of the "Old Comedy" style to have survived. They are The Acharnians, The Birds, The Clouds, The Ecclesiazusae, The Frogs, The Knights, Peace, Plutus (Wealth), The Thesmophoriazusae, and The Wasps. These plays have been translated into many languages and continue to be staged or adapted for theatrical productions. Aristophanes satirized the political and social issues of 5th-century-BC Athens, such as the ongoing Peloponnesian War, the structure of the city-state, the role of women in public life, and the influence of philosophers (notably Socrates) in shaping public opinion.
