In the dictionary greed is defined as a selfish desire to acquire more than one needs or deserves. Greed is something that just about everyone has.

I believe greed is not good because it can bring out the worst in people , and present situations, and people at their worst. Greed results in just wanting more and more, and never being satisfied. The saying "you can never have too much of a good thing", is not true. You can have too much of a good thing, and it could result in just wanting more. When you just need more and more things , you might find it hard to stop. You don't always need the best and biggest of everything, because really it is mostly something you want, not something you need. .
Like just about everyone, I have been a greedy person, and have had greed. When you get one thing you want, you end up finding something else you want as well.

Greed is also a bad thing because it can result in people doing things that they would not normally do.
