Translation: "Shift as much cost as you can to as many other entities as you can." $realworld says that is short-sighted. If selfishly saving $x increases the overall economy's cost by $10x, it doesn't take a genius to see the net loss. I doubt I'll retire within the next five years. I prefer not to pee in the pool in which I must swim.
