Is Greed Good?

I’ve been watching a video on YouTube, originally made by John Stossel. In it, he explores capitalism, greed and the desire to succeed. Frankly, I think more people need to be greedy, and push themselves to make their own success. What would it be like if everyone stopped looking for a handout? I wonder why some people don’t think themselves capable of being self sufficient? I think that some people do want to make their own way, but don’t want to look too ‘greedy’.
(I have some things to say about greed and Walmart, but I’m a bit tired to do all the research that’s necessary. I hope to be able to post about it in a few days, but I’ll tease you by saying my opinion is probably going to surprise a lot of people.)

I’ve known people in the work-world who are greedy and succeed beyond belief. I just don’t think I have it in me to think of only myself and step on anyone who gets in my way. I guess this means I’ll never be rich.
