I don’t understand the pressure to give bad people their money back. What’s it supposed to accomplish? I’m not sure it should even be legal to send money to SBF.

If the money was stolen, it was never SBF's to give. The law does have provisions that can force the clawback of stolen funds. But because we're talking about politicians here, I don't think anybody believes the law will be enforced equally to them.

It's supposed to prove that you're better than they are. It's not supposed to accomplish anything other than that.
