Everyone should be required to read @idikuci’s statement in bold, very half hour or so. It should be rephrased as a question and put down by the. Voting and Posting Buttons:

“Is what you are about to do going to make the World a worse place than it would be without your interference?”

The problem around here is NOT economics. Profit Maximization is a middle-brow utilitarian ethical system for middle-brow minds.

Except as intellectually vapid as the system is (and it is...people who have moved beyond first-year college ideas know this in an obvious way) the real problem is not about it’s logical failings, but, rather, it’s failings on a higher level of cognition associated with learned empathy, synergizing rationality and reason with controlled puroposeful emotions, and better understanding the complexity of individuals and the civilizations we conceptualize as making them up.

This is a longer (and less well-said) version of Idi’s idea...Avoid doing something that makes the world a worse place than had you done nothing at all.
