    It bugs me when people say corporations enable people to take risks. They don’t. They eliminate risk. They allow people to do risky things without any personal accountability. Then they just shut down one corp, start another, and do it again.

      It’s like snake oil salesmen from the ol West. But instead of jumping towns they jump companies.

      I did relate it back to money so you’re not wrong but I wasn’t really talking about our current incentive structure.

      I believe we would reward these people with a cushion against risk no matter the underlying system because that’s what we value.
