All natural with no preservatives

Well, this may not make for a good post, but I think we need to take a step back from where you're starting with this question of greed.

Namely, we need to determine if human beings are in a natural state in the industrialized society of the 21st century. Would you accept that all of the technology that envelopes us and significantly alters our existence is but an extension of our natural abilities and makes this a natural state of existence? On the other hand, has mankind wandered from the Sub-Saharan Africa to a completely contrived system in which evolution has, to at least some degree, been deprived on the necessary feedback to progress?

Your thoughts on this, I think, lead to different interpretations of greed in our society, especially in our moral interpretation of it. I'll be happy to share both views, but we'll need some money on the table before I spin the wheel, AnonEcon.
