Which should be the #1 comment for this article that's based on the currently popular of guilt, and pride in feeling guilty.

We build on own success - each one of us. Being successful is not making a debt to someone - and even more so to society. And being successful is sexy!

You got at least my mod point, and hopefully more will come, but IMHO we should be very worried that such misconceptions are getting so popular :-(

Thanks for the mod point, I completely agree with you. I find it very worrisome that such ideas are getting popular among developers. If you want to destroy a people, destroy their self esteem first. I for one, do not welcome my unearned guilt dispensing overlords.
