Some say that money is the root of all evil, but I believe that money itself is not evil, but power is.
Power is the driving force of all that is horrible in this world. Political backlashes, war, and crime are all committed by those seeking power over others. Almost every single piece of human suffering throughout our know history is because someone woke up one morning and decided that they were more important than others, and that they deserved power over them.
Peace is impossible because there will always be someone willing to start a war and sacrifice countless lives in their pursuit of absolute power. It doesn't matter what laws are made or what policies are established, there will always be greed and this evil accomplished through selfishness cannot be stopped or avoided.
