Default Three thoughts...

1. Poor people can be greedy too. Look at Lotto addicts... if you've ever worked the cash register in a convenience store, you know exactly what I'm talking about... they may not be succeeding, but they certainly don't appear to be motivated by the desire to contribute something to society.

2. Corporations are apparently an ethically-neutral construct that can enable a mass of people to do serious damage just by showing up... I think that has more to do with laws in need of reform than with the ethical purity of the big wigs on top, since even a big wig with a sudden urge to "do the right thing" can be forced out of his position by pitchfork-wielding shareholders. (You can tell I'm a big fan of the stock market. )

3. I would spend it all on shoes. I mean, what else is there??
