I guess greed starts early...really early

[HEyHEY]

Today we I was working in a park and while I was there my co-worker paid a couple kids five bucks to make fun of the hat I wear while working. The kids came up to me and asked if I was a farmer and stuff, and halfway through I figired out what had happened and had a good laugh at it.
The as the kids were walking away, they started fighting about who gets what of the five bucks...... oye. I rememeber when I was a kid me and buddies were just that buddies...it was almost like the moffia when it came to honour, and not ratting, and splitting money evenly. kids today...I tell ya!

4. greed is natural

we're all born caring only about ourselves. We have to learn to interact with people in society.

5. Greed is one of the biggest problems in this country

Greed leads to exploiting workers, to stealing, to profiteering, to murder, to lack of health care, to just about everything bad in this world. Greed may not be the only factor, but it is often the underlying factor leading to all of these things.
