the root?

Radix malorum est cupiditas.The literal translation from Latin would be, “The root of evil is desire.” i think the times changed since the chaucer times. I feel like greed is the root of all evil. I feel this way because greed means you want everything for yourself. For example, the dude who robbed all those people for their money. That was greed. But who said greed was the only root. Have you ever seen a plant with only one root? Never theres tons of things that are the root of evil. I feel like its revenge at times because when you get embarresed by a person, it's the worst feeling that anyone can have. You feel like you have to get the upper hand in this situation. So i feel like theres tons of things that are the root of all evil.
