Hmmm
Well, I thought Capitalism means something like "profit-greed". Even on a level of seeing 'profit' only to do with money, I think that anyone who really wants to make money - like, REALLY - will think twice about destroying resources, or at least put a lot of thought in how these resources can be recycled and such, so there can be MORE of it sold, and thus more money made...
It's the type of greed I refer to.
If you want a form of immortality (the only I see possible is via your genes surviving), you have to make sure the earth is inhabitable for you as an immortal being (even if it's only your children and grandchildren, it's a type of immortality).
That's why I'd say egoism and capitalism have, in their actual pure forms, nothing and nada to do with short-sightedness.
