el mat: So true, and note the cause-and-effect there. It's just one of many causes of wealth, but motivation to make and keep money, subject to reasonable claims of the commonwealth/community for provision of public goods, is often slighted by redistributionists. Perhaps that motive feels like greed to them. Wall Street taught us that greed is bad. I'm much closer to agreeing with the Michael Douglas character that, properly understood as motive, greed (motivation to be productive, in order to earn money) is good. This assumes, of course, that you're not breaking the law or acting immorally or unethically.
