You are very correct that this scripture is often misquoted, wealth does not bring evil but it does bring responsibility.
The reality is that a large portion of the wealthy are corrupt but there is also an equally large portion of wealthy who are not, it is just that you don't hear about the good people because they don't advertise their good deeds and often live quiet lives.
*edit* Money is a tool, God has blessed some people with wealth to use wisely but unfortunately some use it for selfish desires.
