It sounds then, instead of accredited investors, we need an accredited capital investment designation. Allow anyone to invest, but require those who would seek investment from anyone to be under more scrutiny. Of course, this is only if the one seeking investment choose to do so.

Hahaha yea you're right, looks like I invented public companies a few hundred years after other people.
