Role Greed Plays in Societies
Do you want something? If you do you’re greedy. Greed is not a bad thing it is actually good! Greed has been the primary motivating factor in every major historical, scientific, social, and economic event so far. Without greed, our economy as a hole would fail overnight. Without greed, there would be no religion. Without greed, governments would cease to exist. Without greed all the currencies in the world wouldn’t be worth anything at all. It is the greed of the worker, striving to earn more money, which drives our country and the world forward. It's the greed of the buyer, wanting to keep more of his hard earned cash, which causes him consider his buying options and purchase the least expensive product of the best quality, thereby creating market forces which sell goods at a lower price for daily consumers. It is the greed of the holy man seeking after the love of God which causes him to do good works.

Greed does wonders too people. It makes them work together even do they hate one another there greediness drives them to work with each other because of there best interest not because they want too.

You can actually say every one is greedy in one way or another. But greed is the thing that makes my life easier. Without it there wouldn’t be any inventions making ordinary work even easier for me. If it wasn’t for greed we wouldn’t have all these great inventions that we see every day in out house. For instance the light bulbs or even the refrigerator. All the things we see today...
