Why should the founders of SHX be punished for trying to make a little bit of profit? We like to whine about how burger-flippers don't get paid enough to literally lift a spatula but we're happy when the SEC goes after a few creative entrepreneurs trying to get ahead? Why shouldn't they be entitled to the profit their product can generate? As long as they weren't actively making misleading or fraudulent claims (e.g., leading users to believe they were actually investing in the companies), they should've been left alone. And by the way, a lot of people make money off of jokes. [1] [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comedian http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comedian
