Greed and Capitalism

What kind of society isn't structured on greed? The problem of social organization is how to set up an arrangement under which greed will do the least harm; capitalism is that kind of a system.

Occupy Wall Street: Everybody knows that the dice are loaded.


Leonard Cohen writes.

"Everybody knows the boat is leaking,
Everybody knows the captain has lied,

Everybody got this broken feeling,
Like their father or dog just died"

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows"
