: Greed is good. Greed cuts, it clarifies. It makes things happen. Without it we would not exist in our current form. We may never have evolved without it either. And remember, if McDonalds sells 10 billion Big Macs a year, then someone must be buying them.

Evolution has a neat trick it employs every so often when one species or set of species tip the scales and throw nature off balance: It is called "mass extinction" and has happened several times in the history of the planet. Perhaps you have heard of it....
