If a KKK recruiter and organizer can eventually renounce his past and go on to have a 50 year career as a legislator in DC, why can't this guy put his past behind him?

- fallingfrog 6y agoWhich market is that? He’s a powerful ceo. There’s no market for those, as such. The market can set prices for bread and orange juice, although that’s manipulated too, but it’s not like this guy was traded on some options market or something. He got the job by raising capital, knowing the right people, etc. not everything is a market. Also, the products his company sells are not on offer to the public but to a small elite of powerful government and private officials, who definitely don’t care what the public thinks since all this can be shrouded in secrecy and ignored or denied.
