Exploiting for Fun & Profit?: Nassim Nicholas Taleb:
The characteristic feature of the loser is to bemoan, in general terms, mankind’s flaws, biases, contradictions, and irrationality—without exploiting them for fun and profit.
Perhaps in evolutionary terms this may be true. The question is of responsibility. If you have the clarity of vision to incisively identify mankind’s flaws, do you inspire change to correct them or take the money & run and in so-doing, perpetuate the status quo? ♦
