Greed has stolen our humanity

We live in a society where the love of money reigns supreme. People are blinded by greed to such an extent that they have become their own enemies. Leaders are corrupt, marriages are schemes for wealth and property, young boys have resorted to drugs, and young girls sell their virginity to wealthy men.Unemployed mothers watch as their lovers rape their own daughters because they are the breadwinners.How long before we realise that as long as we make money out of evil deeds, we will forever be in debt in the account of humanity? ..
