You have to dislike the truth underlying, "the stock market has gone from a place where investors actually own part of a company and have a say in their management, to a market designed to enrich insiders by allowing them to sell shares they buy cheaply through options." I'll be a lot happier when that's no longer the case. I'm young enough to want stock investing generally to be a fair bet, and idealistic enough to care about pension fund beneficiaries, not to mention the US government's huge implicit long position.
