From the Plato Reading: From a Business point of view, can you see why the vision of Er and religions such as Christianity might conflict with the ideas that greed is good, that society should seek to be prosperous, that wanting more from life is better than a life of sacrifice? Explain your feelings on this. Do not use fuzzy logic or hazy definitions. Be specific.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The desire to be prosperous is a good but greed is not good. To be prosperous requires hard work and focus hence a man with this focus should be up and doing. If prosperity does not come a man should be contented and not result into greed. Greed could make a man involve himself in so many bad things to get wealth and affluence.

Christianity teaches good works from where blessings comes forth and not greed.
