Some say it is the LOVE OF money that is the root of all evil. That love implies greed.
I say it is the LACK OF money that is the root of all evil. Desperation. Survival mode.
I say a cornered animal running from a leopard will be much more dangerous than a greedy pig, to mix my metaphors.

Money was never the root of all evil, The love of money was the root of evil. Before a monetary system coveting thy neighbors goods was the root of evil.

Ego. The love of money not money it's self is the root of evil. Money is the most accepted symbol of success, power and glory.
The desire for these things is driven by Ego.

Well, I think that greed, envy, and fear have all shared the honor of being the root of all evil since the dawn of man.

The Bible says the "love" of money is the root of "many evils",
as far as the root of original evil well it comes from our desire to be God instead of loving God.
hope this helps..

That's easy: Competition, the sacred cow of sacred cows in human society. Our economic system is based on it. Competition is the root of money as we know it -- and war and poverty and corrupt CEOs controlling the puppets pretending to 'serve the people.'
