Admirable Tom! Personally my own definition of greed probably differs from many, in that it is not how one chooses to spend their money, but more about the choices they made to earn it. In other words, I do not begrudge those that may wish to have a Hummer, although personally I think they suck, as long as they had earned the right to make the decision through honest endeavors.

On the other hand, I detest those that would lie or cheat others to achieve their personal wants. To me, that is the true definition of greed.

Cheers,

<Myself I see a hummer as greed.>

But what about the person who thinks it's 'cool'... always worked on and loved cars as a kid (with dad) and a teen... works as a mechanic on a 'dragster' team out at US 30 dragstrip on race weekends and has his own custom shop??? What if he LOVES his hummer?

Then maybe ones opinion may change from 'greeedy' to 'misguided'?? Or even.... gee Hummers are OK for some folks!!

Context, context. Never let an opinion get in the way of context. :))

"Myself I see a hummer as greed"

That's funny - I see it as stupidity. But then I ride a 250cc motorcycle, and the hummer-lovers probably think I'm crazy.
