Then why do you have so much faith in the market? It is every greedy person's dream to be able to control and restrict the freedoms of others. Free markets excel at giving power to greedy people.
I think that the market is good for a lot of things. Looking out for the powerless isn't one of them.

A guy like Maddoff is a theif. A guy like Zuckerberg may have defrauded others, we will never know. A guy like Buffett made billions off of the work of others from buying and selling financial instraments. A guy like Ray Kroc (Mcdonalds) used his drive and initiative and made billions that benefited millions of people and will continue benefiting millions and millions more into the future. There are subtle and not so subtle differences. To understand my point of view, one would need to explore those differences in greater detail.

I don't think your point of view is as mysterious as you do. And thievery isn't always illegal.
