Default Very interesting reading

Daniel asked, in part:

"....how does knowing that someone you deal with ....STOLE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS from regular Joes and Jills, impact on your need to buy and sell cards from and through him?"

It would make me have some negative thoughts.

Then, the fact that the person was punished, pretty
much gets rid of those thoughts.

The system punished the person. The system represents
US. If we are not satisfied with the process, we might
as well just lock crime-doers away forever, or kill them
all. Punishing people further, AFTER the system has already
acted on OUR behalf, just is not the way it is done in
America.

WE give out lots of chances for people to do the right thing.
Sometimes it works out well, sometimes not. As far as I can
tell, from reading this thread, it seems to have worked out
OK in this instance.
