Disappointing but not surprising given the greed driven agenda, I mean where would you get enlightened self interest from in that salivating morass of acquisition ... greed.
He seems to think that enlightened self-interest is different from greed in some way. It is not. Enlightened self-interest is smart greed. It is greed that sees other utility besides money, besides power. It is greed that sees that the universe does not have to be a zero sum game. It seems like the right sees unenlightened greed and wants to enlighten it, harness it, and make it a positive while the left just wants to eliminate greed itself, which like most core aspects of human nature, is simply impossible.
Greed is a useful response all creatures have to a windfall.
ReplyDeleteIt's not smart at all. That's the problem. You want to base your economic theories on greed and that's a pity.
The reason you are in such a bad way now is the result of greed. Your corporations have destroyed your countries economy with greed. After things started to naturally slow down in say 2005 ish your financial geniuses boosted the housing market to the moon, with the smarter among them shorting the whole thing.
You know how that turned out ... I hope.
