    1. At least casinos already has bet limits before you start playing. This is more like doubling down on 11, and then the dealer removing all of the face cards from the deck, and forcing you to finish the hand.

      You are not allowed to explain. House rules.

      “Busy Teacher/Mom, have you quit kicking your dog?”

      Busy Teacher/Mom answers “No”.

      See the problem?

      The guy should have responded by saying “That question, as stated, cannot be answered by yes or no” and let Waters deal with why.

    2. @zztzgza If he’s smart he certainly spent time with a good attorney in order to understand how to deal with the committee.

      I’ve spent a bit of time digging into this event. I’ve not been involved in any way, have never used Robinhood or shorted a stock.

      At this point in time my impression is that Robinhood did not do enough stress testing and when activity blew up didn’t know how to handle the problem. In their operations manual there should be a page that says “If this happens here’s what we do”.

      There was probably a better solution but it didn’t come to them at the spur of the moment.

      We need to remember, none of the Robinhood users lost invested money. They were simply prevented from investing more money, hoping to earn money.

    1. @DarthSailorMoon Oh, I know. I spent time looking into what happened. I understand the difference between the loss of money and the loss of opportunity.

      What I also know is that I’m posting facts that don’t support what you wish to believe

    3. ​@Bob Wallace You just used a completely off topic situation as an argument, lol. You’re making a complete fool out of yourself, and it’s quite sad instead of funny.

    5. @DarthSailorMoon How did Robinhood cause you to lose money?

      If you owned any shares you could have sold them at any time. Selling was not blocked.

    1. @Dëtox Nixon I’m sorry but if I read one part of your paragraph correctly. Did you just suggest that 9/11 was a lie? If so, explain because that’s bc what confused me. If not then forget I said anything.

    2. The worst part is this is just more taxpayer money being wasted because neither the crooked businesses nor the crooked politicians will pay for their crimes. However, the taxpayers already did pay for it all and is now being charged for this debacle.

    4. @Ant Clerfont If you can actually find footage of the 9/11 event, you’ll see the building squibs detonating as the towers fell. I noticed this while watching it live back then. Building squibs are utilized to control the direction of a tall building’s falling path. In this case, despite the high winds and the slow burn of jet fuel, it still fell straight down. I am no demolitionist, but I have learned that they do NOT place those charges in a building while people are actively working in it. Why do you think some of the media tried to push the “skull in the smoke” pictures? It’s called misdirection.

    5. @Ant Clerfont respectfully, I can share this with you but I don’t want to sway your opinion. I’m not sure what generation you are. It’s always hard with the older generations to communicate about the subject.
