    Do you really believe that greed is a more recent phenomenon and that we've survived this long as humanity because we're a social species that works for the betterment of ourselves?

      You clearly didn't understand the poster. It's not about greed existing, it's about the system which explicitly incentivises greed and ruthless extremism in pursuing it. If you reward greed, the most greedy will inevitably come on top of it. What exactly do you expect from a system where competition is the highest virtue?
