I see what you mean now by "mindless hoarding". This requires a more detailed discussion; happily, Henry Hazlitt has provided it: http://steshaw.org/economics-in-one-lesson/chap24p3.html http://steshaw.org/economics-in-one-lesson/chap24p3.html See also Murray Rothbard's discussion: http://mises.org/money/2s9.asp http://mises.org/money/2s9.asp You may not agree with their analyses, but at least they can serve as a counter-narrative to the mainstream views you evidently support. By the way, your comment can be improved by removing everything before "not all forms..." In that case, it would simply make a cogent point (though one with which I still take exception). As it stands, your comment comes across as petty and unrefined. Stay classy—it's nicer, and it's also more likely to persuade.
