Is greed the seed of all evil? Is it not for greed that the knight
creates your armour, an armour that would not exist if not for him? Is
it not for greed that the alchemist creates your potion, a potion that
would not exist if not for him? And is it not an act of greed to demand
lower prices for the goods you crave?
I say, "May the world be greedy. May mortals trade value for value,
engaging in their voluntary choices of the uncoerced rational mind."
Is greed the seed of all evil? Nay, nay, thrice nay! I say unto ye
mortals: greed is the seed of all progress!
