Who is screwing up the world?

I read e-mail before I started writing. There are constant pleas for money, and I would like to help each and every one; however, how would we live if we gave our money away? I wonder how much money GWB has given from his personal account. He seems to be more about stealing from the poor to give to the rich. He is a reverse Robin Hood. The struggle between the rich and the poor has been going on for ages. The Communists started out to help the poor, but ended up hurting them more than they helped them until their system imploded. I think that the struggle for power is the real problem. Whoever has the power is screwing up things, whether they are rich or poor.
It is the nature of human beings to control each other. Political and religious systems are their tools for such control. On the other hand, some people need to be controlled. It is an eternal dilemma. A democratic form of government is the best solution anyone has come up with yet. Our problem today is that people who are claiming to be all for democracy are screwing it up, much as the Communists screwed up their countries.
What we need is for all people to be moral and compassionate. The religions have been fighting “sin” for ages by trying to control people. They are steaming toward more and more power, and are on the edge of destroying the church systems by being more concerned with following dogma and doctrine than teaching morality and compassion.
It is the power hungry who are screwing up the world.
