| The problem with this thread is that self-determination, and wanting good things for onesself is being called greed. Is it greed to want to earn a living, send your kids to a good school, have a nice house and go on vacations. Is it greed that makes us want to afford a pleasant retirement? No, greed is something else, and very few people fit the description of greedy. There are far more people who fit the description of ENVIOUS. Is Envy bad? Should a person be at all concerned with the economic prosperity of their neighbor. Should they badmouth prosperous people who worked for what they have? Shouldn't envious people be told to SHUT UP and leave everyone else alone? Mind your own business. Live and Let Live. |
