Greed.

The majority of the worlds problems boil down to greed. Environment and climate destroyed because of greed. Energy crisis because of greed. Starvation because of greed. I see some say cancer...well sickness is a huge money maker. Most health research is geared toward putting a patent on drugs to make more money, not to cure anything. You cure diseases and all that drug money is gone. Then you have Monsanto putting patents on seeds and forcing farmers to court to force them out. Politicians not doing what's best because big business lines their pockets to pass their laws.

Bleeding hearts.
 
A good portion of the Human race...before the end comes....at least delaying the end
 
Cruelty...if we just get rid of ignorance/stupidity...the cruel people of the world are going to be brilliant.
 
I've had a thought about this, and I think I know what I would rid the world of: free will. Seeing some of these news stories; well, without free will, there would be no capacity to commit evil.

May as well strike out charity, altruism and innovation while you're at it :lol

Eh, it wouldn't matter, since none of us would be anything more than robots at that point, anyway. That's why things like this are very easy to answer; because, assuming the world was free of free will, we wouldn't know any different, anyway.:lol

But, so are the kind and just people. :cool:

Had to think about that one for a second. Last thing I want is to empower stupidity (and when it comes down to it, cruelty is just another variation on stupid).
