Question Question; What is the root cause of our financial dilemma?

Before you go half cocked
Take a moment and think before you answer.

Never mind politics and the election.
Never mind the candidates.
Never mind our personal biases.
What's the ROOT cause?

ummm.

I am going to guess the entire system of money as it represents a means to barter with others, without having any real value or use other than the value we assume it to be?

Or something?

Perfect;

You ask a question and specify

Never mind politics and the election.
Never mind the candidates.
Never mind our personal biases.
What's the ROOT cause?

And what do you get?
