We have a lot of issues plaguing this world but some of them may deserve more attention than others. What do you think is the most important issue we need to address right now?

the biggest problem in my view is greed. i think if everyone can keep low their selfishness, things like insecurity, will just die off

Great response. Yep, I can see how greed is a major hurdle for us. Politicians get greedy and obstruct our development. Company owners get greedy and pay workers less and sometimes fire them. So yeah, people in power can suffer from a problem of greed if they don't check it. :)

@InquisitiveMind exactly, i believe without greed we can trample over all negativities that affect our lives...what do you think?

@Basilo Agreed. I mean, it's part of the equation. :) I guess a desire to fulfill our self-interests is natural. But when it gets out of hand, it can act as a detriment either to our own lives, to others or both. Needs to be regulated to avoid the negative consequences. But yeah, we shouldn't forget ourselves in the process. Some people have the problem of looking out for everybody else's interests and good and forget themselves in the process.

I think the corruption and "patronage" in politics is a huge problem.
