Tesla, just like any other successful company games the system well. The system is neutral at its wildest.

  The seventy first worthless coin offering just made umpteen million dollars and this site feels it's the market speaking truth to power. The most innovative industrial manufacturer in decades raises money, and it's "gaming the system". Right.

    My impression is that "this site" is very skeptical of ICOs, so I'm calling strawman on your comment.

    Your poetic parody reflects a truth, that's why I stated it is neutral. Gaming the system isn't inherently evil, it wasn't an accusation of bad ethics. To clarify my point, I'd like to paraphrase my previous statement without metaphors. Many evil/fraud companies game the system to access unjust benefits. But every now and then one is able to find some company rising among the other, deserves appreciation. It is only natural to think that such companies must have analyzed the system more than the ones they surpassed, otherwise they would go unnoticed among all the cheaters. Back to metaphor; The system is like a blade: a killing device on a killer, a life saving device on a surgeon. It is true that there seems to exist more killers than savers.
