That is how you bankrupt casinos.
That is how you lose everything from inheritances that would have made BILLIONS in an index mutual fund.

That is how you can make stupid statements like drug prices dropping "500, even 600%".

The real tragedy is that too many of us on the left have real empathy and a desire to make the world better for everyone instead of taking everything we can grab from everyone else and making the world better for ourselves alone.
