It's worth noting that this applies to most people, not just the ones "at the top".
Huh, I wonder if Capitalism is a systemic issue and perhaps incentivizes greed
I don't know about you, but I'm not about to be the guy to say that people are only greedy under capitalism.
So proud of you and your reading comprehension
Thank you, I'm likewise proud of you for your ability to patronize.
You think THAT'S patronizing? Then check THIS out:
Capitalism incentivizes greed ≠ greed doesn't exist outside of capitalism.

Do you understand now or do you want me to get out the puppets?
I could explain my point, but I can tell you're more interested in role-playing as a daycare worker, so I won't interrupt your fun.
No need. There's literally no possible meaning of "don't say greed doesn't exist outside of capitalism" (when nobody has claimed anything of the sort) that is a good point rather than a ridiculous strawman, so best skip it.
