    I think everyone should define success on thier own terms.

    I think that works at some level. But you’re opening the door to some Wolf of Wall Street style sociopaths making life miserable for the rest of us so they can jockey for biggest bank account.

      You can’t choose what other people are allowed to think.

      There are always going to be evil people. Things that lead to evil people doing more damage then good is what regulation is for, like workplace safety, etc.

        That’s functionally what education is. Not so much “allowed” as “inclined”. But establishing social obligations and taboos is sort of foundational to any cohesive cultural movement.

        I don’t doubt it. But its important to define what “evil” standards for in order to rally against it.
