Is the crypto dev more or less obligated than the bartender?
Really I agree with you, but also feel like this is a thread that people aren't that keen on unravelling or talking about because it leads them to realize that their job probably isn't as 'un-shady' as at first glance.
- falcolas 4y agoThe bartender is morally (and occasionally legally) obligated to not serve alcohol to someone who is drunk. And to take car keys away from impaired people. The analogy holds, imo.
- palmetieri2000 4y agoFair points, however at least in Australia is that bartenders are legally supposed to stop serving people that are drunk, (Our Responsible Service of Alcohol laws say 'it is against the law to serve alcohol to an intoxicated customer'. My anecdotal evidence is that you actually have to be too obliterated to verbally get the order out or to stand up for that to happen.
