Mark Zuckerberg shorting on his own stock because he knew the price would fall and netting himself some ridiculous profit

Isn't this called insider trading? Thought that was illegal.

No idea, he did do it though, so he must have found some sort of loophole to exploit.

Getting robbed, with no means of defense, or revolution.

Going by the maths I've seen it is much worse being middle class than poor or rich here because there's that much income taken off you every time you earn that much you end up going in the poor category anyway, that's sort of my point I guess, I'm just staggered at how bad it is when I see the actual maths and I'm just going by estimates really too, the worse part is a lot of western countries are like this.
