If you mean greed isn't good, you're right - I meant to finance companies, greed is a good thing. It's the point.

  The problem is there are people who hold strongly to an ideological position that greed is, in fact, a good thing. So if you can still edit, you might want to clarify that you weren't stating that in your comment :-)

    Fair warning. And those same greedy libertarian crypto shills are a dime a dozen in these discussions, but nobody's buying what they have to say and more. Edit: I've recently seen a significant reduction of blatant crypto shilling posts from people like that on this forum (thanks to good moderation, and people calling them out on their lies, and linking to proof of their scams and well documented history of crimes). For example, it's been ages since I've seen any posts here from the notorious scammer and spammer Richard "Dodge Dodge" Heart (whose real name is Richard J "Spam King" Schueler, winner of the "Golden Pump Award" for "Best New Scam" for his POS get-rich-quick pyramid scheme called "HEX"). He was trying to recruit and exploit unsuspecting developers here on HN to implement and operate his scams in exchange for promises of shitcoin equity. https://bitcoin-takeover.com/deconstructing-richard-hearts-lies-about-bitcoin/ https://bitcoin-takeover.com/deconstructing-richard-hearts-l... https://learn.bybit.com/defi/what-is-hex-crypto/ https://learn.bybit.com/defi/what-is-hex-crypto/ https://protos.com/richard-hearts-curious-launch-of-hex-pulse-and-pulsex/ https://protos.com/richard-hearts-curious-launch-of-hex-puls... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29367412 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29367412 https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=RichardHeart https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=RichardHeart

      I mean clearly people are buying it, or at least were when it looked like easy "money for nothing" to quote the song
