With great power comes great responsibilty... unless you have the money printer.
Gross fraudulent behavior is unfortunately incentivized by the fiat system we have.
The theft of our resources is bad enough, but what's worse is that all these rent-seekers ultimately end up destroying their souls.
If you're tempted to whine about the current price, don't.
Complain enough times and you'll start to believe something's wrong.
