Greed

Greed is probably the biggest problem in our world. Back to the oldest records of life and civilization we have, people have always wanted to be the best and have the most, especially money. In the Canterbury Tales story, The Pardoners Tale, it shows how much corruption greed can cause, and that was only on a small scale. Now just imagine how much corruption and how many problems this one thing can cause around the world. On a daily basis, people are stealing, or finding ways to get more money. Everyone wants to be richer and everyone wants to be for their own reasons. Some people want money for power, others to be able to have more material things to show their wealth and some just like money. This feeling, emotion, overwhelming sensation or whatever you want to use to describe it can make people do some pretty desperate things. Greed might just be the root of all evil because greed isn't always about money. It could be about other things like people getting even or wanting revenge. However, it is normally related to money which does cause most of the problems within out government and more commonly lives. The worst part of this though is that there's really no way to fix this problem. Its always going to be around because no one knows how to stop it. Everyone is always going to want more. Its how its always been and more than likely how it will always be.
