Greed as in people that abondon all morals for material and money.

If someone is both they will continue to live with only one of those.

Both religious extremism and greed are superstructural, not the base. Leftists target the base, as the superstructure is shaped by the base and in turn reinforces the base. Move onto socialism and communism, and the oppressive superstructural elements of today will also fade.
