Default Greed

Posted By: warshawlaw

or do you mean "blathering"? You might want to turn the page on that thesaurus a little more, that or use spell check.

Lighten up. None of us "need" the cards; we do it because we enjoy it. Some of us do it to try and make some money too. Nothing inherently greedy about trying to feed our families or support our collecting habits through transactions, as long as no one is cheated.

And while we're at it, give the Bible-talk a rest; not all of us subscribe to a belief in sin, much less deadly sin. You advance no meaningful mechanism for differentiating between "greedy" transactions and acceptable ones. I remain convinced that the greed everyone laments is the force that drives unscrupulous deals, not the basic desires that drive ordinary commerce.
