Merchant greed

those are the primary causes of mineral prices going up.



Really? Merchant "greed"? You mean people wanting to make a profit? Market forces and competition control greed.. There isn't much margin for greedy actions in eve... unless you are talking about corporate theft or scams.

Problems in the real world with "greed" have more to do with the fact that there isn't enough competition in many markets. and the government is highly responsible for this trend.


I think the term 'Merchant Greed' here applies to all the 'extra' traders who appeared out of the woodwork recently to speculate on minerals. I know a few, and i know some of them actually lost money.

Goon conspiracy-mongering is nothing but fevered masturbation by paranoids.
