"Greed is the dominant value today in the world and as long as that persists, we're done!"

I tend to discount the words of anyone who claims "greed" as a force in worsening economic conditions.

“Greed” is human nature, which is why capitalism works and other more utopian systems like socialism and communism don’t.

We should all present ourselves to the government as needy children who need to be led and fed and told how to think and act.

“Please give us just enough to live on and take away all the risks of making a living on our own and prevent us from being GREEDY and wanting more than subsistence.”
