Why isn't greed used for good?

You know, philanthropic goals being fulfilled by short term greed leading to the long term benefit of humanity.  Bill Gates founding a college or McDonald's donating to charity are small examples of this, but more obvious ones would be greed through harnessing cleaner fuel sources, or feeding third world countries, providing shelter, etc.  Companies still make money, but get to benefit humanity as a whole.  Or is this too Green Party thinking?

You bet ya do. Last I checked, the US grid goes down as often as a hooker on the street.

Oh, I guess I just imagined the entire east grid going down, and all those rolling blackouts in California too.

As for the phone? Broadband is lagging, and our cellular system kinda sucks compared to Europe and Asia.

Reread that last paragraph in >>10 a few times, retard. Maybe you'll get it after a while.
