Jeeze, thanks for the lesson in economics.
No, I call it a completely normal company. The company you work for (assuming you have a job) is exactly the same. It will never stop trying to find ways to make money, and it will always charge whatever price its number-crunchers believe will maximize profits. (The exception would be nonprofit organizations, but good luck finding a nonprofit video game.)
Feel free to keep being angry at ... what, economics, I guess? ... but you are only making yourself miserable. Blizzard is not responsible for making you miserable by creating a product you seem to want badly enough to get angry when you can't afford to buy it, just like Lamborghini is not responsible for upsetting people who cannot afford its cars. Both Hearthstone and Lamborghinis are luxury products, and you don't have an inherent right to own either one of them.
I agree that Hearthstone has always been too expensive for its own good, but calling Blizzard greedy for this particular product -- which is exactly in line with all its previous pricing -- is just dumb.
It was more of a lesson in reality, but whatever.

The point is that we don’t need lessons from you, if you think that such a cliché needs to be rehearsed.
If you think it is surprising that any for-profit company would act "greedy," you need a lot of lessons.
Where did I say I was surprised? There are many ways to be greedy and the most obvious ones are not meant to last. Dickhead.
[edit]: there’s a bug on this website, you get notifications when an ignored user keeps replying to you. You’re talking to yourself dear, but this way at least one person will be interested in what you have to say.
If it's not surprising then why are people making such a big deal about it?
One of the ways to be greedy is to want things you don't need, and to be angry about not getting those things. Like packs of golden Hearthstone cards. If anyone is being greedy here, it's the people complaining about the price of a luxury-within-a-luxury: not just cards for a game, but golden cards that are nothing but show.
