- AsymetricCom 13y agoThis seems to me that you're saying that they shouldn't be responsible for their failure. This leads to the discussion of whether or not people who start or back failed/failing businesses have made a net contribution to society or are simply leaching off the contributions/momentum of others. Obviously, there is a balance to these things. You're both contributing and leeching with a failed business. Monopolies are the same as well. Each one can be abused or used to create a contribution or to coopt value. What really matters is when you're all said in done, is everyone, including the employees, better off?
