Respectfully, it is not a matter of our system being so rotten. (I like your strong verbage, but I find it inaccurate, as in rotten tomato.) A system based on individual freedoms like ours (as apposed to a democratic collective) has unintended consequences like the one you have pointed out. These consequences do not make the system rotten, they are but a smell (a very strong smell) indicating a flawed system. A smell I have no reasonable remedy for in a system that I personally think is rotten and terrible, it just happens to be the best one out there by far. Yes, to reward a cheating scoundrel with unimaginable wealth for the knowledge he gained(in part) from the competitor is a rotten situation, but when put into context of the millions of people in the US and like systems around the world who have exercised their individual freedoms and legally, ethically and morally struck it rich, this one case pales in comparison. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
