Self interest is in between being good and bad. It is a good thing because it provids freedom to do what you want to do and to be succesful. Also self interest helps stimulate our economy.
We have the right to own our own property rather than it being publicaly owned.
Self interest can be bad because of greed and power. Power isn't controled by a higher athourity. Greed is what everyone is striving for; the dollar value of a thing. This picture shows how there are goods but then there are downs, and how power isn't equal.

Kyle,
ReplyDeleteYour comments are thoughtful. Of course you are correct - self interest can be move us in a good direction or in a bad one.
What is that we are striving for Kyle? Are we striving for greed or is greed the thing that makes us strive .... Nice job linking to a picture, it helps to explain your point but it does not really strengthen your case.
What about the other entry.... what motivates you?
