“Greed has been with human beings forever. We have a number of things in our species that you would call the dark side, and greed is one of them. If you don’t put certain structures in place or restrictions on those parts of our being that come from that dark place, then it gets out of control. Capitalism does the opposite of that. It not only doesn’t really put any structure or restriction on it. It encourages it, it rewards it.”
The above excerpt may, or may not, prompt you to read (or listen to) Naomi “Shock Doctrine” Klein’s interview with Michael Moore as he launches yet another polemical documentary, Capitalism: A Love Story.
