This obviously breaks the site guidelines and is not welcome here. We ban accounts that do flamewars and name-calling in HN comments so please (re-)read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and don't do this again.

You're really not interested in defending your ideas to anyone who doesn't immediate agree with your absurd conclusion that everyone should want to trade places with John Rockefeller.

Vacuous and Naive.

Sorry, for that, but is throwing insults really how discussion is supposed to be done?

I'm afraid you threw your share around too. Flamewar is exactly how not to respond to an annoying comment on HN, regardless of how annoying it is. If you can't remain civil and substantive, please don't post. Read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and you'll see what the recommendation is for reacting to egregious comments: flag them.

Sorry! Didn't see the flag controls. Thanks for the heads up. Post wasn't intended to insult, just demonstrate how silly it seemed as a response.
