Best Answer

Pyramid schemes are direct consequence greed together with the belief in infinite growth.

It helps to reassure yourself that owning a couple of millions or billions is not just thievery.

Because of belief in infinite growth you can defend' your egoism by saying:

"there's enough for everybody who wants to work hard like me'

Or "every newspaperboy can become a Bill Gates"

Infinite Growth is the basic behind capitalism.

Conservatism, protection of wealth without looking at how you got wealthy

1 example: IBM likes to forget that it got extremely rich in WWII by automizing concentration camps for the Nazis
