Market manipulation. Insider trading. Normally people go to prison for this. But there is no law in America right now. A day of reckoning is awaiting.

This is what happens when you fire someone like myself and replace me for a cheaper immigrant. You know this was gonna happen eventually, right? Everybody likes jumping into worthless Chinese money.
