I mean, this is more of a problem with capitalism than anything else. It applies to everyone, people are encouraged to become fucking businessmen and scam everything and everyone for any cent they can. It's definitely a problem that needs to be solved, but I don't think it invalidates what I think.
I mean, the logic applies to a lot of other things, is free healthcare bad because rich people use it to not pay things that they can afford, and don't pay taxes for it? Nah, it just means that this point needs to be fixed, but free healthcare stays good, because of how it helps the people that actually need it.
