They can take care of themselves and they aren't restricted in using 
their magic like house elves are. Curious how their biggest beef 
seems to be that wizards won't share their wandlore, at the same time 
they insist anything made with by their hand, with their skills is 
theirs to keep. And they don't seem to be sharing *their* gifts of 
metalurgy and other craftsmanship.

Tiffany:

I can't really see why the goblins wouldn't want to their gifts in 
craftsmanship & metallurgy with others.  I also seem to grasp their 
beef with the wizards not wishing to share their wandlore with them as 
well.  I have a lot respect for some goblins in the Potterverse & WW, 
potentially as much as some wizards.  Goblins can do some great stuff 
if left to their devices & free to do what they're good at.  I've seen 
plenty of awe-inspiring stuff done by goblins in the canon & can be a 
formidable threat on either side of a battle.
