Good is generally considered that which is best for the society. Bad usually manifests in the form of that which is best for the individual at the cost of the society. So if bad is usually something done for one's own good, you don't have any individual rogue so much as a bunch of them under the wide umbrella of "not-good." You still just have good and bad.

And I'm just pretending Bombadil isn't there, for anybody interested.
