    I have to say I’m not sure how to feel about this. I want to be concerned, but other extreme miscarriages of justice significantly outshine a simple conflict of interest. I have greater concerns about our fundamentals.

      On top of that, I would say that any investor willing to invest in this wants to be mislead, so unless they are investing someone else’s money, why should we care?

    I don’t like this, but is this on a level beyond congress being allowed to do insider trading? Yes, it should be fixed, but it’s not in my top fifty concerns.

    The trump technique, commit more crimes than you are able to prosecute in a bureaucratic order/timeline and get away with 90% of them while it takes years unraveling the 10%. By the time it’s over, you’ve done it again and it doesn’t matter anymore.
