I never said I don't believe in altruism. I just see greed as a more powerful motivator. Do you not agree?

It's actually the other way around. The bigger the organization, the more room it has to cook its books and bribe the verifiers. Also, the bigger the organization, the bigger the tax cuts, which means bigger motivation for grifters.
