someone said that money is the root of all evil, but did they ever ask what is the root of all money? for me money is just a tool, it brings you whenever you want to go, but it doesn't replace you as the driver, wealth for me is not evil, when you are wealthy it means that you are wise and knowlegeable, because wealth is the product of man's capacity to think.

Wealth is NOT the product of man's capacity to think. Wealth is the result of uncontrolable greed and corruption. Take the United States for instance. Since President George W. Bush gave tax cuts to the wealthest American's: The top 1% of American citizen's own 34% of the nation's wealth. The bottom 90% own 37% of the nation's wealth, with the remainer owned by the top 2 to 10% of America's wealthest citizen's. President George Walker Bush sold out the American people in favor of the wealthy, Big Business and Big Oil so many times that he should be tried for TREASON against the American People!

Aw, that's bad man, but i still wish im an american, if that is greed and corruption for you, what more here in my country, im from philippines, and i think we are no. 5 for the most corupt countries in the world. George Bush thinks to become wealthy but in a bad way i think, just like i said, money is just a tool, because of its bargaining power it changes people's lives, but dont let it replace you as the driver, we are the master of our own lives and fate.
