But what is the driving force that explains how millions of people manage to cooperate to get 60,000 different items to your supermarket? Most of them don't give a hoot about you and me, some of them might hate Americans, but they serve us well and they do so voluntarily. The bottom line motivation for the cooperation is people are in it for themselves; they want more profits, wages, interest and rent, or to use today's silly talk -- people are greedy.
Dr. Williams appoints you as 'tuna czar' to illustrate the complexity of the marketplace. He explains why greed, the vice politicians love to villainize, is actually the driving force of most human endeavors and a necessary component of our economy.
