They can also be lost just as quickly when the market doesn't conveniently act like you think. If the system was rigged in the way you suggest, hedge funds would do much better as an asset class than they actually do (after fees, they've significantly underperformed an S&P 500 index fund). WRT your claims of rampant insider trading, when the SEC sees heavy option volume before public news breaks, frequently, someone goes to jail.
