> the crackdown in insider trading Which, in reality, was the SEC and Preet Bharara trying to say that large investors aren't allowed to have meetings with the execs and investor relations people at the companies that they were large investors in, which doesn't make much sense and was knocked down by the courts. |

There was a lot more to "reality" than you make it out to be. E.g. there's this clown https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raj_Rajaratnam#Conviction_and_... and 13 of his buddies who were all convicted and who are doing time.
And don't forget about Stevie Cohen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_A._Cohen#Controversy who managed to skate personally but whose hedge fund pleaded guilty to criminal charges and agreed to a $1.8 billion settlement.
