National greed is the product of private greed. You can't differ between these two, one is the product of the other. Else you'd say that even in democracies the governments do not act in the interest of the population.

And you are right, nobody is intellgitent enough to create a failsafe. But humans also are no above failure in court, nevertheless you guys still use the death penalty. Not that this is a positive example at all, but when ppl think they have the right to sentence folks to death, then they surely have the right to control financial and economic corporations that have a proven record of pure self servitude on the expense of others.

If you say that greed is human nature and uncontrollable, then why did you have a problem with Germany invading Poland in WW2 and taking the lands to the east? All born out of excessive greed. Then again the US invaded Iraq for oil and strategic interests. Greed at work again.
Sure, this goes with human nature, but it produced even more violence. And the same applies to excessive greed in general. Don't harbor it and it will lead to destruction, as can also be seen in the excessive crisis we are in now. Wherever I look, greed causes huge problems, undermining the wests standing in the world and seriously threatening our position to influence world politics.

If you still insist on greed and human nature beeing acceptable basics to found a nation or even regulations upon, then I promise you this crisis will repeat itself, sometimess better, sometimes worse. And in a world that is more and more overpupulated and it's vast majority not sharing your views of acceptable greed, this will uninviteable lead to riots, revolutions, wars. And purely by numbers we simply can't compete with Asia in the long run. You are sacrificing long term national political influence for short term personal convinience that is bound to end anyways.
