Heller may be right that he is comfortable with his station, but don't discount the fact that the desire for wealth, power, prestige, honor, etc. can be a postive influence on people to achieve meaningful benefits for society.

I certainly recognize how a capatalist society results in scientific, technological, and medical advancement for the benefit of society. I also believe in a free market. What bothers me is the greed of a few, far in excess of that which is necessary for advancment of society, actually retards the advancement of society. I'm not saying government needs to regulate this, but it does give me cause for concern. Hopefully, societal disdain for this type of behavior will result in self regulation.
