You don't change people. You design systems that don't allow for a snowball effect where inequity creates more inequity.
Of course, that's easier said than done and above my pay grade, but what I do know is that it doesn't look like saying "celebrating excessive greed is good"
I disagree to a certain extent, people are naturally shaped by their environment and that environment can be changed. In my view greed is a natural response to fear, if we build a society where nobody has to fear poverty you can nearly eliminate greed as well. If eveyone has food to eat, a home to live in, acess to healthcare, and a strong community to support them, such a society would naturally build a strong moral standard for all who live within.
I agree. My comment wasn't so much talking about people or even what the alternatives could look like. It was trying to point out the inherent flaw with the current system that ensures the equilibrium always shifts towards "more inequity".
