  This is true, yet, where will it get us to wallow in those traits? It is also human nature to be compassionate, especially to those in a disadvantaged position, hence the myriad of charities that exist.
  But, again, where the compassionate person will build, say a car, with the comfort and safety and pleasure of it's user in mind, the carmaker driven by avarice will eliminate things in order to make more money.
  In addition, people motivated by personal gain won't ever be satisfied, for there is always more to gain. This hunger (in it's extreme, mind you) has the potential to destroy the lives. What's the harm when someone (or everyone) gets progressively more compassionate?
