It's worth calling the concept of greed and its capitalist conceptualisation into question as well.

We all want better things, better food, better sex, better looks, better means to self actualization. This is natural, we all want to improve things for ourselves and, if we're decent, for others as well, if for nothing else than the social capital it affords us, at its basest. The question is "what are we willing to do to get them?"

Are we willing to exploit others to get them? Kill? Self-harm? If greed had a consistent definition, I'd say that that is it, and that is the foundation of capitalism.
