Tema:’Money is the root of all evil’

Ralv / Dallto

TIRANË, qershor ,2010

I. Introduction

Many people believe that money is the root of all evil. From money comes conflict,war,murders and all sort of evil things. This saying has existed since ancient times. Even in that time people believed that money had evil influence on humanity. Others think that money keeps the world balanced and maintains order.We come to the questions:Is money the source of all evil things? I will try to answer this question below when I will give facts and examples that support both theories.

II. Body

Before money was invented and later known by all countries as a tool of exchanging goods the world was peaceful and humanity had not so much lust for power than it has today. In that time amassing the most money wat not the main goal. Happiness and family were priority. After six decades people suffered the two greatest wars in history(World War 1 and World War 2). These two great wars were caused because the greatest countries of the world lusted for money and power and world domination. Millions of people were killed,others suffered greatly the wounds of war.Another example is the continent of Africa where in some countries war goes on even in our days. The main reason of this wars is not people’s freedom or human rights but to gain money and power through war and then to control the corrupted government which means power and money. One example is Mozambique whose president is Munhantapata.This president has an extraordinary wealth. He took his position through war in order to gain money and power. Thousand of citizens died and others were put to prison because were against his regime. Today it results that Mozambique is one of the poorest country in the world and only because the lust of one man for wealth and power.

    Conflicts somehow also started through greed , that are often seen in states with negative economic growth and/or systemic poverty, as this implies limited state capacity to provide opposition groups with economic concessions as well as the likelihood of the absence of an effective military or police apparatus to contend with those seeking power or resources. The phrase "greed versus grievance" or "greed and grievance" refer to the two baseline arguments put forward by scholars of armed conflict on the causes of civil war.…

    Furthermore, the source of all the conflict in the world is power. The government and any type of officials in power will use the authority they have over people in order to get what they want. No matter who is there to stop them. It is also seen that in order for these people to have this much power and be in control of everyone they have to take part in keloptorachy. This is when people begin to manipulate others and appeal to their feelings and selfish needs in order to get them on their side. Diamond states, “Upstart would-be replacement kleptocrats seeking public support by promising a higher ratio of services rendered to fruite stolen”(Diamond 276). Government officials who ran for their positions did not get to where they are now because of their honesty and trying to mankind great.…

    On a much more dangerous scale, wars are always started to obtain what another country already has. Many greater nations have all this wealth, yet they have no idea of how it should be handled so it can be a blessing rather than a curse. A major problem is that wealth is advancing but justice and wisdom are moving at a much slower pace. “Wealth useless without virtue and wisdom… Witness those ancient empires of the earth, in height of all their flowing wealth dissolved: but men endued with these have oft attain’d in lowest poverty to highest deeds” (Milton 433-438). As a matter of fact, ancient historians such as Plutarch, Sallust, and Cicero wrote on the fall of the Roman Republic and explained why the wealth had collapsed because of the actions…

    Since the time when cavemen inhabited the earth, it has become human nature to want more than what one has. Before the concept of wealth was developed, humans fulfilled their needs by trading or bartering with others based on items that they needed to survive. As mankind has advanced, humans have expanded into desiring nonessential things. Money has become a medium for exchange and a payment for work, and currency is now fundamental to most life on earth. Only three percent of Americans supply their own food through farming or hunting, which reflects that a massive ninety-seven percent of American’s use money every day to purchase food.1 The amount of money one possesses culturally determines their success in life. Humans who have wealth, also have influence, because they have what people desire and are able to live the lifestyle that they want. As people believe that they need more wealth, they become slaves to money. The humans who possess wealth gain influence over money worshippers and as a result, are the most powerful in society.…

    As the old saying goes, time is money and money is power. Since the beginning of time, civilizations have fought for power and the prosperity that comes along with it. Once power has been obtained, civilizations have fought to great lengths to hold it. This lust for money and power has driven the economy on all levels of society from local to international. This rationale of more money equals more power can be seen throughout the works of Sojourner Truth, Henry David Thoreau, and others.…

    I guess money’s effect is even greater than what we think. Moguls, tycoons, billionaires, and the rich almost control the whole world just because they have the financial resources. In turn, this creates a drastic inequality worldwide. Heck, these people are so powerful that they are mostly responsible for the happenings in the global economy. They may not be entirely bad, but they are certainly not entirely good. The “poorer” countries are more often than not on a disadvantage against the richer ones.…
