You can depend upon a bankster not giving a **** about the greed that
cost more than 1000 lives. No one said the factory shouldn't make a
profit, by the way.

It's good to see you once again searching for the moral high ground.
Hopefully you'll find it some day but I'm not holding my breath.


Just as an FYI, I'd argue that incompetence was probably a bigger
culprit than greed in the case of the building collapse. When things
are designed and built correctly, they don't fall down.


What a wonderfully self-delusional way to look at corporate excess. The
guy who expanded the building illegally in Bangladesh was simply
incompetent and didn't know what he was doing would lead to disaster.
The companies who contract for the lowest price manufacturing facility
didn't know the companies they retained had their workers laboring for
**** wages in such a facility. It's never greed, because the free market
system, why, it demands that structures and systems are designed, built,
and operated correctly. Yup, so anything horrific that happens, why it
is never the fault of cost-cutting or greed.

Wow. Harry, you really have become cynical to an excess over the
years. Starting to think GOM syndrome is setting in.

Greed is the driving force in the economy.


It's the driving force of any economy. ie to gain more



So, you are an acolyte of Gordon Gekko, and believe that unrestrained
greed is good? Mighty shaky ground for a devout and believing Christian,
eh?
