> Investing is betting on the competence of an executive team to run a business. One of these, you have no control over.
But again, you're asking people to have a lot of trust in this executive team. Unless we have the legal and regulatory framework that can enforce that trust it all becomes very sketchy.

That kind of erosion of trust is really dangerous for the markets.
