If you think that living life requires you to constantly put down others, I just feel sad for both you and all the people who have to be around you.

I don't, but our economic system is based on and rewards that. It does feel sad.

I dont think it rewards it at all. Things like this are just negative sum activities lashing out.

Our economic system in no way rewards spite. It rewards value. It might not always be able to tell the difference between real value and underhanded tactics, but that's because the tactics masquerade as better value.

On the contrary, capitalism is based on providing value to others. It rewards those who do something that others actually WANT... as opposed to what some roomful of bureaucrats decide ought to be done.
