> I didn't mention scale / I'm not sure how you came to this conclusion. I am assuming that the more wealthy someone is the more likely it is for a bad public reputation to impact their livelihood. I was unclear about that. To be more clear the correlation is extremely messy but exists. The rest of it we covered in the other thread (yes, I recognized the username). There is no punishment going on, the person in question is anonymous. We are considering the actions and how unethical they are. You keep saying there is some way this person could be innocent, what could that be? Put your cards on the table, come up with a hypothetical where you were an investor at a business event and you combined an offer of money with making a pass and should be judged to be innocent.
