Oh I don't blame him even a bit. I'm just confused by the folklore going on around this situation. I even had livid leftist friends calling me to tell me about the end of the capitalism and libertarian friends excited about sticking it to the establishment.

That was not my impression but maybe I got it wrong and maybe they are right. Nevertheless I enjoyed the saga, I don't trade. It's too stressful for me when I have a skin in the game.
