To the liberal - it is competition that is their greatest fear and is the root of all evil. Greed is the concept that is slipped willy nilly in the space between competitors to explain why one entity is strong and another weak. It is the apple on the Tree. Envy always hides behind a mask. It passes itself off by appeals to fairness, equality, or whatever explains away its insidious motivations. Greed is Envy’s most talented lie. A strong corporation shares whatever it itself considers the excess profits of its labor - by paying for executives and all others under its employ with big enough salaries to attract better ones than the competition. Building a strong and highly competitive corporation is one of the most virtuous activities of man.
The wealth gap can be explained in America as the result of citizens having become satiated - not with excellence, but with laziness. When the government and not the freeman controls the stepping stones, all paths are marked “Bovine only.”
Very true.
