Consequences of Being Motivated by Greed
I heard on TV this morning that a boy died from a tooth infection which spread to his brain. Dentists had refused to treat him because he was poor. Contrast this with my distant cousin, who is also a dentist. He works with an organization that provides medical and dental care to the poor in the Third World. I wish that all medical professionals were motivated by the desire to heal and save lives, like my cousin, instead of being motivated primarily by greed. Then that boy's life could have, or should have, been saved.
