It is true, we are EXTREMELY regulated industry. You would not believe all of the background checks we go through to get hired. We all get fingerprinted. You cannot work in our industry with any felony convictions, and even misdemeanor offenses are closely scrutinized. Most firms require drug tests and criminal background checks. The SEC and FINRA closely monitor all securities firms. We are highly regulated in every respect. I don’t think we will agree on much. But I don’t think Heidi Cruz’s past employment at Goldman Sachs should disqualify Ted Cruz from running for president.
On that we agree.
