if a person comes from a background of abuse then fear will be a motivating factor

I believe that greed is more powerful. It seems to take people over and change them for the worse. They say money is the root of all evil and it seems to me that there is enough proof out there to show it is true. Some people will sell their souls to have the power of money, fame and fortune. Greed is what makes people hurt each other and good people go bad. They say everyone has a price. I like to think that's not true, but unfortunately our politicians have proved me wrong on that one.

fear because it causes desperation and a desperate person can be dangerous.
