I recently saw an old interview with economist, Milton Friedman, who asked, “Is there some society you know that doesn’t run on greed?” And I thought, “wait does every society really run on greed?” Friedman was replying to an interviewer who was equating capitalism with greed

and, I think, Friedman would contend that there is a difference. If nothing motivates like self interests then we should certainly be on the look out for greed in our lives.
