I may not like Trump, but I have been hoping for sovereign funds in the USA. We need one for SS and Medicare. Imagine if some SS and Medicare funds were invested in stocks decades ago?! Just hope that these funds will be managed by several respectable investment managers, not some crooks.

Glad for the result! Prosecuting and suing someone who was just helping others at his own risk is the main reason why people just do not help others anymore! Instead of being a hero and thanked, his life was ruined.
