Good outcomes for everyone by acting selfishly? Oh boy! Let me tell you about the distant past of 2008 when selfish/greedy actions could have crippled the entire world economy but instead governments bailed out the selfish/greedy corporations and left all non-corporation people affected to flap in the wind.
And that's skipping over the COVID-19 capitalism fuckery, dot com bubble, healthcare, housing in 2020's etc.
Capitalism is a cancer and it is literally killing people for the sake of money. But here's a $1 so just forget about all those useless bad things.
