Re the current primacy of greed, think of the words of the godmother of the neo-liberals (aka neo-cons), Margaret Thatcher.

"There is no such thing as society."

This world view not only sees human society as the war of all against all, but the neo-liberals' worship of the market as the prime deity means they see this as a good thing!

If they didn't wreak so much havoc on others, I'd feel sorry for them. They cut themselves off from the most rewarding parts of living, when people come together for altruistic reasons and create something that is much more than the sum of its part.

The rich networks of interactions and exchanges, sometimes operating in market-based principles and sometimes not. that make up society certainly do exist, and I am glad to take part.
