Greed is not the same as ambition. The difference is in ethical considerations and societal impact.

Wanting a basic quality of life isn't a "level up," it's part of the human condition. It's not inherently greedy to seek a comfortable and secure existence for oneself and one's family. Usually, attaining that also benefits society by compound gains with education and productivity.

An insurance company allegedly defrauding the US [1] and not even reading claims [2] before rejecting them is pretty clearly greedy IMO.

I agree that there should be competition and less corruption, but the focus should be on accessible, high-quality care.

If greed means breaching a contract or doing something illegal then the term is not needed as more accurate language can / should be used.
