Money is claimed to be the answer, but really, how can something we almost are all required to have in some form be the answer. I ponder this question "What is the root of all evil?" Believe the answer is not really money, but what we believe that money brings. From a very young age society pushes the value of success on material objects, which intern leads us to believe that with more we are better, keeping up with the Jones's. So really it is not money but the love for it that installs the thought that with it we are better or more powerful. With money comes power or a sense of being successful. It is true that we all want better things for our families and security. When does it go from that to an obsession, we need more till we don't care what effects it has on our fellow people. I believe a lot of the issues we see in our society today stems from the love of money, greed, and the need for more power.
