Define "excessive greed".

Ok. Excessive greed is that amount of greed that prompts you to take
risks you can't afford with money you can't afford to lose to acquire
returns you don't really need.

That's "just the right amount of greed." The unfit should be allowed to
suicide; that's evolution, the way God intended! ;)

Then we disagree on our definitions. Not the concept of what caused the financial problems. ;)
