Greed. Is It Necessarily Bad?
Description
In a material world, some argue that financier Michael Milken may have done more for humanity than even Mother Teresa. In this program, ABC News anchor John Stossel, entrepreneur Ted Turner, economist Walter Williams, and philosopher David Kelley redefine greed, discussing its value as the driving power in business that creates opportunities for others as it churns wealth for itself. By pumping capital into the economy, providing jobs, and offering goods and services that improve the quality of life, greed may be the best thing to come along since philanthropy.
