Capitalism Promotes Greed, It Is Inherently Evil

Now, I have an extensive background in business. I have an MBA, and I have a business undergrad degree. I have held this view for years, and some could say that my geographical location of my upbringing has had some influence on these views. Who knows, I just know I made it through college with a "livable wage" mantra being my main focus of my research. I believe that if you pay your lower end workers a livable wage, they will produce for you, a better product, thus increasing your brand's quality, which pays the shareholders as word of mouth will add to the value of your company.

Capitalism rewards the greedy with massive amounts of wealth. Every other business professional tries to emulate what these heavy hitters manage to do in these markets. So, everyone is in the pursuit of Sin. Greed is one of the deadly Sins. Capitalism promotes greed, thus is evil by its very nature.


There has to be an alternative to the capitalistic society.

That alternative does not mean communism. I am not a fan of giving out to everyone equally when some give more of their time and effort, and should be rewarded for that effort.

What I am saying is that there needs to be a change in how we measure success for a business. And people who start businesses need to learn the value of their employees, as it is their ideas that bring those employees together to build a product or provide a service, and without them, your company is just an idea.

Value your people, and they will value your business. Show them by taking care of them.
