What's the larger point here?

I'm glad you're thinking about that!

1) I'm not sure, and I'd like to hear others' thoughts on that.

2) If greed is stupid, and if people recognized that, then I think society would be much better off. Because it seems that a lot of people make society a lot worse off in their pursuit of greed. This obviously begs the question of how to get people to recognize it (if it's true).
