-----------------
The Bible teaches it very clearly, I Timothy 6:10a:
"For the love of money is the root of all evil."

In such a case, people desire money more than releasing the information as widely as possible to help people. And the second part of I Timothy 6:10 addresses the effects:
"[love of money] which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows."

Not all of those sorrows are realized outwardly. Nor are they initially obvious. But when the reality of who we are is considered in a moment of silence, and one reflects upon their relationship to their neighbors ... the extent of that piercing becomes clear ... as does the extent of their error.
