He is performing a valuable service for all of us. One John_Black_type (and he is a generic type, although I'm sure he's uncomfortable about it) can easily provide employment for two other people as they clean up the messes he leaves behind. This increases the demand for our services and drives up our incomes. In the end, we all owe a lot to the John_Black_type. WARNING: Too many instantiations of the John_Black_type in a company can lead to serious financial difficulties for that company.
