The ground should not have power but it is a safety wire in case you have a ground fault. Something is leaking current to ground. In addition you have a bad ground.
Several have advised you to check with the 3 light tester and to plug into a GFCI circuit which is a good idea.
A very small leakage to ground (under 5ma) is acceptable but above that a GFCI will trip.
I understand something is leaking current. But, when I shut off the AC breaker, I have no issue. Is it possible it is still a different circuit?
All of my problems go away once the AC breaker is turned off. No more power anywhere I do not want it.
