Nationwide: Tuesday, Feb. 3rd:10:00-11:00PM Eastern & Pacific /
9PM Central / 8PM Mountain "GREED" with John Stossel: ABC News
correspondent John Stossel does it again with yet another
trailblazing Stosselesque documentary. THIS TIME HE DEMONSTRATES
WHERE GREED HAS BEEN GOOD TO US, AND HE DOES IT DURING PRIME TIME
ON NATIONWIDE NETWORK TV.

Stossel presents a new way to define greed by examining good things
enlightened self-interest can inspire: Better transportation, faster
food, cheaper products. Economist Walter Williams observes, "In our
country those areas where people are motivated the most by greed are
the areas that we’re the most satisfied with, supermarkets, computers,
Fedex . . . and those areas where people say we’re motivated by caring
are the areas of disaster in our country, such as education, the post
office, police services, city garbage collection."
