Both of them are "deadly sins" according to christianity.
Then why is society so hard on real/perceived lazy people yet actively promote greed in the form of profit seeking ?
Shouldn't they be both equally reviled ?
One could actually make some good arguments regarding how laziness can be beneficial, like how it often fuels creativity and innovation to reduce efforts.
Greed is harder to defend since it's basically screwing over your peers to stuff your pockets.
It makes no sense to me, especially from religious conservatives, which are usually corporatists.
They should be the promoters of Open Source which is axed on collective work and sharing marketable concepts with everyone, yet those are mostly on the left.
