Money As the Root of All Good?

Been reading some interesting stuff about money. The latest came from Witnit.org in a post about the fictional character, Francisco D'Anconia. It's quite eloquent in its idealism.

Another provocative book is "How I Clobbered Every Bureacratic Cash-Confiscatory Agency Known to Man" by Mary Elizabeth Croft.
The above link takes you to page 75 where the section "Root of All Evil?" begins. I highly recommend reading all of Ms. Croft's 96 page pdf book.

Anconia says that money is the root of all good. Croft says money is the root of all evil. Are they in complete disagreement? You be the judge.
