moral hazard

Description

Moral hazard is the sumptuous feast of irresponsibility, where the more you secure safety nets, the bolder participants gamble with others’ resources. The thicker the guarantee, the more one plays in another’s wallet, turning flawless contracts into relics. The line of ethics is a ruler redrawn to the elasticity of expected bailouts. The comfort that someone else will clean up the mess is the sweetest poison leading to the greatest mischief.

• An invisible bandit’s invitation, weaving through contract loopholes under the shield of security.
• Alchemy that births devils of irresponsibility behind the noble name of predictability.
