I believe Andy was referring to human behavior, rather than corporate
behavior. Humans display some self-interest, but also display mutual aid
and compassion, and it's debatable which motivates behavior "more".
Oligarchic banking powers don't. As such, it's unfair to use their
behavior as evidence for a statement about human behavior patterns.
