Ahem - never thought I'd see a link on hackernews glorifying hoarding (the economics type), but here here are.

"Imagine a particular bag of grain that you bought at T1 for 200 francs, and then sold a month later, at T2, for 800 francs."

What about at 1600 francs? What about at 16000? The original argument was about morals, not math or some kind of utopian economy where every transaction is fair.
