Samuel Butler said, “It has been said that the love of money is the root of all evil.” Just because money sometimes can push people to do illegal things, people always put all the faults on money and ignore that money could not commit a crime but human being’s ambition and greed.
When a man is caught and accused of defalcation, tax evasion or other crimes, he often says it is because of money leading him to this way. However, I feel it
ridiculous because money cannot walk to lead a person or say something to
attract him, how can it lead him to this wrong way. Even if it can do this, why
other people who have the same job as him are not misled. So money is innocent. We should not let money bear all the responsibility of our crimes.
In the economics, money is just a tool or a kind of representation of goods to let our exchange of goods become convenient. It seems that when it comes out. It has the tend to bear the blame of irresponsible persons because of its great value in our life.
If money can speak, I think it must have a lot of agony to cry out. When you do illegal thinks to gain more money, just ask yourself, “Is it money that leads me to do so?” Of course, the answer is “No, it isn’t. It’s the greed and selfishness in my heart.”Then you will hesitate and introspect your action to see if your evil has hurt others.
Whatever happens, remember money is innocent because its name is given by human being and its story is also made up by human being.
I can not too agree with you.Money is just a kind of tools used by people to exchange. It is people's greed that is to blame.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. People always want to find an excuse for their own faults. They shift the blame on to money when they are greedy.They say they are too busy to do things when they are lazy.We really need to think about this.
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence!In my paragraph,I talked about the same thing with you and I have exactly the same opinion with you! Yes, money is treated as a scapegoat and the real root of evil is the selfishness and greed in people's heart. We should use money in a proper way and keep conscious in our life.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you! What we should do is to introspect ourselves instead of put all fault on money .It is bad to delete corruption from the root.
