Do Maximum Harm

In response to a Yahoo! Answers question, I answered:

MDs use the ethic; Do no harm.

Lawyers, political scientists and tax collectors use the ethic; Do the maximum damage that you can get away with.

A doctor of philosophy, a lover of knowledge, should understand the distinction.

These are the MaxiDams -- those whose function is to cause Maximum Damage.
