Anyone who bought not knowing about the toxic death spirals, or thinking they wouldn't result in this endless rush to $.0001 has no one to blame but themselves.

“No one in this world, so far as I know — and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me — has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people"
H.L. Mencken
