So, what will Greed whisper to the miners' ears?

The users play a bigger role than you give credit, miner's will mine the coin with the most value and the value comes from liquidity and market depth created by the users. If miners who hold little influence on developers hijack Bitcoin it will fork for the greater benifit of it's users.
Not quite. Miners will do whatever gives more benefit to
themselves. Is the 21 million BTC cap good for
them?
I'm betting they will do what is best for
themselves I'm depending on it, there are a lot of sheep miners. I'm one, I support one of the biggest pools but I'll drop them in a second if it threatened my savings.
