No, there are some people and I hope in the majority, who try to make it a
win/win situation where exploitation and unethical business practices don't
enter into the equation.

I would take that to mean you would kill another person and feed them up as
well if a cow isn't available.  That sort of thinking is what makes having
rules and regulations necessary.  Some people need protecting from themselves.

I haven't retired and never intend to.  But then I am not out to make what I
can and care about others.  I also follow the rules, both those written and
those implied.  Your view of what 'real world" rules there are is flawed.  If
I took your lead I'd be justified in taking all your money and doing whatever
I wanted.  All the phishing and scams are legitimate under your logic as it is
just taking advantage.  If I can get your banking details out of you by
whatever means it allows me to clean your account out.

No, it isn't na?ve, I know people can't be relied on to do the right thing.
There are far too many people who think like you do.  Which is why we have
laws, rules and behaviour modifiers.

Glad you got a chuckle out of it.
