Short answer: I am comfortable with my job.

I think your question makes some incorrect factual assumptions, but also it incorporates a world view that I don't subscribe to (not wrong, but also not what I believe).

I think that if I had your belief system and your set of facts, I would probably feel uncomfortable about it.

The world view is simply that this technology arms race performs no useful work to society. It's simply people with capital investing enormous sums into gaming a system and extracting $$. Okay, this so far is not even a view, it's just how things are. The "view" is that it is wrong x) Much like one could argue that e.g. the yacht industry diverts resources and people from other more pressing needs.

As for "my" set of facts... well they're just facts :) not "mine" or "yours".
