    • @Murciful
      @Murciful 3 года назад +8

      Ken didn't disable buying ability, Robinhood and other platforms didn't have the cash liquidity to pay clearing houses to support the vast number of trades as they have to the money upfront in order fullfil the trade and they didn't have the cash.

    • @ForMindlessConsumption
      @ForMindlessConsumption 3 года назад +7

      @@Murciful Robinhood was instructed that it had to increase its capital requirements by the NSCC, which is operated by a private organization. This corporation could easily be manipulated or leveraged against by major market players like Griffin or Cohen. Since it's not an official US regulatory body, there's no necessary requirement for transparency or neutrality.
      In 2007 the NSCC got into trouble over naked short selling. Certain indicators of the GameStop situation suggest naked short selling might've been involved this time as well, given the ludicrous short position. Michael Burry (of The Big Short fame) had GamesStop as his biggest position last year, but around summer 2020, when he tried to recall his lent out shares, it took brokers weeks to locate them. Very strange, but would be explained by brokers who didn't bother to locate stocks before letting hedge funds short them.

    A key problem to the US education K-12 system is how schools and teachers are paid, through property taxes. Next, teaching is not a valuable or respected profession, and lastly different groups Americans value education thus their children will succeed regardless of income. I taught English in Asia, and was respected as a teacher, my housing was covered, I was living a middle class lifestyle, even started a business on the side. No way, could I do that in the US. I also dated a Fin, who us a product of the Finnish education system (I even went to Finland), they have the best education system in the world because: a. All children have access to quality education, b. All children have an equal start in life, c. to be a teacher you have to go through a rigorous program (I believe Finland was the first country in the world where teachers had to have a master's degree) and are paid as professionals. The speaker is right that the US chooses NOT to have quality K-12 education for all students.
