I think he was pointing out the double-standard that's implicit in comments such as yours about "Big Pharma".
Basically, boiling down to "wanting money for profit" is greedy and evil/bad. But wanting "free money" or benefits/products is not, because well, it's not profit. Egh, don't think I articulated that quite nicely.
To me, the distinction is irrelevant. Wanting stuff is natural, whether your needs necessitate it or not.
I don't think "wanting money for profit" is "evil/bad", but the pharma industry has in the past done some arguably unethical things in relation to marketing.
Anyway, my point was that me being greedy is completely irrelevant. Even if I am, hypocrisy does not make one incorrect, and what does it have to do with the substance of my comment?
