Exactly. But greed is the main driving force of mankind. And this is not generally bad. Take away the greed, and humanity would still live in caves using stone tools (if at all).
Agreed, there should be regulations and limits, but the only way to make everyone communistically equal is to downgrade everything to the lowest possible level - and let it stay there. Communism = nice theorey, just sucks in reality.
