Why couldn't it just be "greed" instead of "white folks' greed"? Tells me you think only white people are greedy. Kind of a bonehead question, don't you think?

It's an imflammatory statement, and I agree that it should just be "greed". Looking at the practices of dictators like Mugabe, Mobutu...not to mention that when I google "Asian banking scandal" I get almost twice as many responses as when I google European banking scandal.

Whoa, the OP totally changed after my post. I think I may be missing something, I didn't see that quote in the link.
