IS GREED GOOD? By Gordon Gekko
Over twenty years ago, Wall Street kingpin Gordon Gekko told that world that 'greed is good.' Now, having paid a stiff price - a lengthy stint in prison - for taking that philosophy to its extreme, Mr. Gekko is back with a vengeance, and a change of heart. During Gekko's incarceration, greed somehow got even greedier, and now, he says it's nothing less than a moral hazard that can lead only to continued economic stagflation. Make no mistake: Gekko is still not pulling his punches. While claiming that recent developments put his schemes to shame - "I'm so out of date compared to these crooks," he says - Gekko is no less a force to be reckoned with than he was in the 'Greed is Good' '80s.
