Yeah, it's more honest work. You actually produce content. Trading is just money games, moving money from place to place to make more money, but not actually producing anything. That's called usury I believe ;) We have too much of it in the world and it allows people to be rich by doing nothing really... just money games.

Here in the US, usury is charging what is considered to be an unacceptably high interest rate. So, credit card companies can charge 29.99% interest and it's OK, but 30% is usury.
The banksters and wall street people have corrupted the economy so the paper shufflers are rewarded and the actual producers are left to fight for the crumbs.
Exactly. Look at how ignored people who grow food are. They grow the plants that feed us. They have the power that sustains our lives. People who produce things get shafted, while the owners make most of the profits off their work.
Sadly, it seems that most Muricans want to be those people rather than change the system so they aren't rewarded for being greedy selfish bastards.
