<human>: Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?

Reddit, I can't help but see the benefits wrought by injustice and it's starting to worry me.

I'll start off with a less serious example: Firefly. Firefly was/is wonderful. But, like all good things, Fox killed it in its prime. Had the series continued to run, I'm sure Whedon, et al, would have produced much more quality programming. Maybe not. We'll never know. But by killing Firefly, Fox transmuted it from a great TV show into a underground cultural phenomenon. We wouldn't have Serenity otherwise. They did the same thing to Futurama and Family guy. I almost feel like I should thank the bastards.

A more serious example would be practically any foundation you've ever heard of. Organizations for the benefit of breast cancer patients, for rape victims, for murdered friends/family, natural disaster victims, etc. None of them would exist without the initial tragedy.

A more serious example still would be what's happening with the US Government (which, perhaps appropriately, Fox is also in the process of killing). My rational self tells me that greed and lust for power are at the heart of the endless woes that afflict this country. On the other hand, Americans don't appreciate what they have in terms of freedom and it almost makes sense that some movement is taking place to remind us to fight for our rights. I can't accept that, logically, but functionally that's exactly what's happening.
<bot>: Is it possible that those in power are doing the right thing for the wrong reasons (or the right reasons?), or have I lost my marbles?
