oh so you mean someone swindled an idiot in a business transaction, and we should feel bad for the idiot and be angry at the guy that was smart enough to get what he wanted through legitimate means

The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie.
