So in additional to allowing Sam to calculate margins on his fingers and toes, the SEC allowed him to move clients money from FTX to a company that had no legal authority to operate in the Bahamas. The best defense they can claim is *we didnt know*, basically giving up the game.
With this revelation can Brave Davis still go around the world and claim that FTX had the best regulatory oversight? The one thing Im certain of is this isnt the last time the Bahamian regulatory framework will be called into question laying the perfect foundation for client lawsuits
They dont have to pay. They had an option to leave and they left. Intelligent administrators would be reassessing to determine if the prices were reasonable or unreasonable and whether the loss of business was barely noticed or had a negative impact
So Atlantis get the heavy hammer and a surprise investigation for writing a public letter letting employees know they are free to exercise their legal rights but the Hilton gets a pass and a phone call on having had hundreds of workers in the country illegally for a year??? This isnt an oversight.
Having the PS explain after the fact what was in the council administrator's head and assessing them as good people so no harm done, is **not** how transparent systems operate. That explanation should never have been presented.
What happens when you have someone in office who is evil? Suppose they start charging 2000 dollars to cover all costs? Clearly any administrsror can create whatever rules suits them as the PS admits he also set his own rules when he held the office.
The next question the PS has to answer is, why was the no accepting money rule implemented in the first place? These administrators have zero knowlege of their responsibilities and codes of conduct.
The police will recognize too late that their strategy of allowing persons on bail for murder to be themselves murdered is backfiring.
The popular narrarive is "good riddance". Unfortunately its very narrow minded and shortsighted.
Im not sure if people remember but before the lockdowns the phenomenon of people being killed in broad daylight was almost unheard of. Nobody would pull up to a car at a stop sign and open fire. Now its become common place. Lockdowns were used as a shortsighted solition to crime. The police happily assumed that if all the criminals were restricted to their homes, no crimes could occur. At one point during the lockdown the commissioner even told us theyd "*solved the murder problem*". But what happened? The criminal mind adapted, changed, it became bolder, got accustomed to making riskier moves. And we cant put the genie back.
So as people rejoice with all the murderers on bail being wiped out, whats actually happening? The criminal mind is changing again, possibly has already changed. With dozens of friends falling dead around them daily, they no longer fear death, its inevitable. There's a nordic term attributed to a certain group of warriors in battle, "*berzerkers*", they were thought to be the most formidable fighters, literally thought to have gone berserk, no thought to their own preservation, leaving death and mayhem in their wake.
"*Filled with rage and without fear for his own life, the berserker cast himself into the midst of the battle arousing terror amongst friends and foes alike.*" -en.natmus.dk
The police need smart leadership. Nonvisionary nonstrategic leadership will leave us with berzerkers in our midst, and God help us when they have no fear of shooting up Bay St, in their berserk haze, with 6 cruise ships in port, to get at a target.
