Ah, the "human nature" argument. Is there anything more insidious? This idea, like all others before it, is one of those that rule. "Greed is good" is the creed of our epoch. Before, in feudal society, it was "We rule because we have divine right". In the end, it's just justification for the actions of a ruling class.
