It does not punish them. I simply does not reward them for following the calling of their heart.

Hollow semantics FTW.


Do you distinguish between something and nothing?

Not rewarding is NOT the same as punishing.

Again, semantics. Withholding can be a form of punishment.

But back on topic, my point stands that capitalism doesn't necessarily reward the most noble behavior.


I thought you said that capitalism punishes such behavior.
