Is money the real root of all evil in today's society

I think I will support this with the present situation of my country. Due to the rate of poverty here, everybody including the young ones are in search of money in all ways. Some are ready to do anything because of money. Imagine pastors involving in crime just for money. It is also said that ones true character is not known when you are poor. In some cases, when you have much money, you behave as if you are the only person in the world.

Blaming money is the easy way out, if money was so bad as to be the source of all the antisocial behaviors exhibited by humans, if we banned money would those people stop their criminal behavior?

And we do not have to go through the trouble of banning money to know the answer, money is a recent invention and those behaviors have always been there, what we need to do as a society is to give more opportunities to the poor and during the last decades the rate of extreme poverty decreased, but the pandemic increased this number again and we have yet to recover from it.
