Sorry, doesn't. Whether I am a janitor or the sultan of brunai, either what I said is correct or isn't. Make no diffence who I am.
And if you aren't arguing the point, the question (or any statement) is completely irrelevant.
Who appointed you, the curator of relevancy? For one to be so judgmental is inappropriate, offensive and deems self to be irrelevant.
First and foremost, there is no sense in arguing over the intricacies of greed, the root of all evil and human tendencies. Nor will I debate over the complexities of the human psyche, mankind as inherently good/evil, nature versus nurture and principles of Machiavelli. I simply do not have the time nor the patience, especially over a video game forum. Secondly, the chronicles of greed and its consequences within history is heavily documented, but does not stand as a generalization for the way of life of all individuals. I am educated in the chronological history of greed. I do not support it, nor your outlook on humanity.
Situational perspective, including employment has much impact and influence upon an individual's outlook. One simply cannot generalize that a janitor's standpoint, belief system and standards will be identical as that of the Sultan of Brunai. Unless one is presented the situation, scenario and circumstance, it is mere hearsay and assumption. Nor should one generalize that all individuals see the world as greedy and possess an ulterior motive. It is a debate of the optimist versus the pessimist. And for one to generalize it and make it public is inviting protest. So if you stand firm on your convictions, then so be it. All I am asking is that you keep your personal concepts internal, as discussions of religion, politics, etc. within a public arena is potentially inflammatory. Otherwise, it may be prudent to join a forensic debate team.
I will respect that you do not wish to share your employment status. I ask this for a broader perspective of outlook, as an individual's situational perspective is a direct reflection of outlook. One that sees the world as good is markedly variant from one that sees the world as evil.
Just because a random janitor is not wealthy as the Sultan of Brunai, does not automatically generalize the individual as viewing the world as greedy. The individual may be perfectly content with the situation presented and consider his/her self as fortunate nonetheless. Case in point. I shopped at Wal-Mart last year and met a cashier who was thankful and fortunate for having the opportunity for employment, regardless of the type. His educational background consisted of a Master's Degree in Architecture and Engineering.
Lastly, I am employed in the health care industry. I earn what I earn. It may be substantial to some, yet meager to others. While some who view the salary as substantially greater than theirs, may view the world as greedy, others may not. Yes, greed does exist. No argument there. But to generalize and stereotype its applicability in all situations, scenarios and circumstance is inappropriate.
I have wasted more time on this "debate" than I care or should. End of discussion. Back to topic.
