of whether greed is really evil. Sure, a lot of capitalists want a lot of money, but if they earned it, provided a service people wanted or needed, and people paid him for it, is that really evil?
I see greed as more of a, "I'll stomp all over your ass to make a buck." If that's the case, this is more of an exploitation of the workers kind of thing, which isn't capitalism that's at fault, it's shitty greedy people at the top.
I think it's pretty fair to make money based on how much your services are needed by a society. I think it's fucked up that people are willing to exploit others to get there, though.
