He makes a point of saying that he doesn't like the name much.
He probably wouldn't like Soak-The-Rich Source very much either, but
it sure is descriptive.  You could be more polite and economist-y and
say Price-Discrimination Source or Capture-The-Consumer-Surplus Source.
Or whatever.

-- 
And through this revolting graveyard of the universe the muffled, maddening
beating of drums, and thin, monotonous whine of blasphemous flutes from
inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond Time; the detestable pounding
and piping whereunto dance slowly, awkwardly, and absurdly the gigantic
tenebrous ultimate gods --the blind, voiceless, mindless gargoyles whose soul
is Nyarlathotep. (Lovecraft)   John Cowan  cowan at ccil.org
