While your explanation and rplst8's are both true, rplst8's is far more useful.
When a plane crashes one person might conduct an investigation and determine that it was due to a faulty weld in the wing and that quality control should be rethought to prevent the problem from happening again. Another might simply say that it was gravity's fault. After all gravity was what caused the plane to plunge to the ground after the wing failed.
Both explanations are true but one is useful and one is not.
Greed, like gravity, isn't going anywhere. It's up to society, and airplane designers, to build systems that work in the face of adversity.
- Spooky23 10y agoProfiteering is when run of the mill greed crosses the moral hazard line in a spectrum of greed. A businessman seeking to acquire obscure companies in order to exploit the sick isn't following some force of nature, he's a disgusting human being. It's no different than swindling refugees or the elderly. People who do this should be socially shunned, and the government should provide grants or free credit to encourage others to manufacture drugs like this.
