Holy shit. That seems a bit harsh.

Or, stick with me, it's not overly harsh, it should just be applied to everyone who does insider trading.

That was pretty much what I meant in a roundabout way. They're being extremely harsh on her when other people are getting away with the same or worse on a daily basis.

Oh definitely - Black Edge is a fascinating book on the subject if you're interested.

I'll go check it out thanks.

Tricky, we definitely should not just let any convicted felons into the UK. No, there should be a cut off amount of 33 felonies.

Anybody with 34 felony convictions or more should definitely not be allowed in.
Or be allowed to be a president. Of anything. At all. Ever!

Precisely my point. The other people doing this shit are getting away with it.
