Ok?

So give them a small apartment to do their hopeless drugs in until they pass away. They're human beings mostly interested in harming themselves, which is more benevolent than the fortune 500s motivation to take as much as they can at society's expense.

You act as if insatiable greed isn't an addiction, a drug with far more potential for harm to others than something like heroin. Greed lets peope hurt others and call it "just business."

Not quite sure how the two relate. You completely hijacked what I said because "slamming" corporate entities is the in thing right now.

Buy some stocks and play the game. You've gotta be smarter. Otherwise quit your whining.

Also who's buying and paying rent for these drug condos? Not me. Not my taxes. I don't work hard so others can fuck up their lives. I'd like to live wontonly too but I don't.

I hope you one day get to live "wontonly" as you'd like to. Then maybe you too can die in the street, addicted to drugs. Either way, maybe you'll spell wantonly right the next time you try to use a semi-large word while trying to sound like a blowhard intellectual.
