The proper quote is that 'the love of money is the root of all evil' - money in itself is neither good or bad - yup bartering takes money out of the equation. Problem with money is that some people can get loads of it without doing very much and others work really hard and get very little, and money skews peoples values, because an idiot with money is still an idiot even though they think having money makes them somehow better than other people.. I guess we are stuck with money system though, even though it is nowhere near perfect.
