You can want these things but the world does not have to deliver for you. A institutionalized version of that mentality is exactly the problem; organizations like the SEC fundamentally exist because 'someone has to protect' people's ability to inflation-proof their nest-egg. People should not question why their nest-egg should have to be made inflation-proof in the first place.

You really think that demanding that stock prices aren't unfairly manipulated by inside players is a step too far? That insider trading should be alright?

Not commenting on the specifics of this case, but some economists argue that insider trading should be legalized:
