It appears you took my praise of Eliezer’s writing for some endorsement of laissez faire capitalism; allow me to sidestep that argument by reiterating my point more concisely for you. Of the pitches you can make for a career in finance, Eliezer’s is one of the more compelling ones, for people who like intellectual challenges. I neither endorsed nor condemned a career in finance, nor the ideology of capitalism itself, nor its failings. Please grind your axe elsewhere.
