I think that everyone has a different view of what they consider greed. Some people might think that a person that makes a six figure salary and doesn’t give back to the community a greedy person, but others might say that the person earned that money and they should use it to buy what they want, no matter how ridiculous or unnecessary it is. In the movie Wall Street greed is taken to an extreme, A company is taken over by a new CEO and he liquidates all of the assets within the first month of owning it and takes like 75 million dollars and destroys the company within the month. That means that he put all of the employees of the company out of work just for his own personal gain. That is taking it way too far.
The movie Wall Street has some similarities in today’s banking industry when it comes to greed, the COEs of the banks gave themselves huge bonuses while the banks were going under, people were losing their homes, and the economy was in a recession. In these cases greed is not good, because greed is what helped destroy these banks and the economy, if these people weren’t so greedy than the state of their businesses and the economy might be in better shape, Greed is not good.

EOC Week 5
After reading a few blogs written by other students I found that everyone wrote what they thought about lawyers based on their experience with them. If they had a pleasant experience than they were more sympathetic towards lawyers and wrote positive things about them, for example in Michael’s blog he had a DUI and the lawyer that he got cut him a deal and reduced his ticket from $3000 to $600. If they had a negative experience with the law they tended to write bad things about lawyers for example; “they charge to much money and they don’t do what there suppose to or what you hire them for.” http://vidaddesign.blogspot.com/.
In Michael’s and Dianne’s blogs it seems when they wrote their blogs they wrote from experience, I also read Stacia’s blog and she wrote from a very different perspective because it doesn’t seem like she has had any experiences with lawyers. She didn’t really take a side, she pointed out the good and the bad things that lawyers do. One line she writes ““…lawyers are really hard-working and know their stuff. They will go the distance for you to get your case solved…” then the next "They give into bribery and condone anything that is immoral or unethical to get the monetary gain they seek.” http://enviousdesigns.blogspot.com/. I agree with Stacia more than the other blogs because she doesn’t have any biased and I think that’s the best way to approach something.
