Animals on both ends of the bell curve. Serial Killer avg. 10 deaths? Last billionaire I met killed 17 and poisoned 30,000. Silicon Valley is essential viewing at the moment on that subject.

Downvotes? At least explain.

This is totally incoherent. What are you trying to say?

Apologies, I'll try again. At both ends of the human spectrum you have people who are so basic human life means nothing to them. In both respects these people want power over others. I suggest the least intelligent are the serial killer types but the most dangerous are the rich and powerful. Wiki commodities brokers.

Fair enough. I think people are people and good and evil are probably normally distributed between the poor and the wealthy more or less. There are certainly bad people at both ends.

I'm familiar with what commodities brokers are and don't see anything wrong with it. I'm quite happy for the existence of modern financial markets.

These are the public versions, I promise it's much worse; A little light reading for you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Rich , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glencore , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trafigura . Claude died.

Ok, so someone was indicted for fraud.He's in jail as he should be. Many janitors have committed felonies. No one tries to shut down janitoring.

You seem to have a very simplistic worldview.

Back at you? You've never worked in finance or you are a shill. Bye, bye. Good Luck.

And the Silicon Valley ref was about how they get away with it.
