They say money, but money is just a tool. There are plenty of good people with means.
I say, it's lawyers.
Everything... I mean EVERYTHING ****ed up comes from lawyers.
One common way: Lawyer sues a school, establishment overreacts to protect themselves, general public suffers.
Another common way: Lawyer determines how far you can bend a law. Say, by shipping POW's overseas to "water board", because water boarding isn't torture.
Basically, it's an arms race between Slippin' Jimmies, administrators, and the administrators lawyers. And we all get caught in the middle.

Never let anyone else define you.

Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
I also think ignorance covers more ground then people realize. Your average Twitterer/Redditer may think Billy Bob the Grand Dragon is an example of ignorance. Bob will be written off as an irrelevant, uneducated hick.
I say that attitude is, in itself, ignorant.

Misery, the true root is misery. Being miserable cause your poor, miserable cause the one you love doesn't love you back, miserable cause your parents loved your sibling more, miserable because you hate who you've become, etc... the variations are virtually endless. I don't know of a single evil act that can't be traced back to someone being miserable about something.

Lawyers cannot be the root because they serve a function. If the need was not there, lawyers would not serve that function. What are lawyers serving? That function. What is that function? Greed, gain, ego.
But can those be distilled into something more basic? A true root?
Desire.
The root of all evil is desire:
"a strong feeling of wanting to have something or wishing for something to happen."
Root of selfishness? Desire.
Root of ego? Desire.
Root of greed? Desire.

I guess technically the root of all evil is that we are self-conscious of our own vulnerability. I think our moral character arises from how we deal with that knowledge of our own vulnerability.
If we recoil from it and refuse to accept that burden we become insecure and ashamed, and if we mishandle that we become arrogant, and I think arrogance is really where evil starts since it motivates and allows people to put themselves on a platform where they can judge other people with hatred, allow their desires to become inordinately placed over the moral good rather than subordinated beneath it, and shirk responsibility and accountability.
If we accept that vulnerability and bear it for the sake of ourselves and other people we become more humble and motivated by love, which allows us to forgive, apologize, make sacrifices, and be responsible for our betterment and that of the world.
That's just my two cents.

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

Never thought Robtard’s answer would be closest to my own if anyone else in this thread tbh, but it happened

I just want to qualify that desire is good it affects those without however desire isn't as good as fear when someone already has abundance or is afraid to lose something.
Hate requires neither desire or fear so there is that.
